Not in any editable format.

As someone else said, you can print the Publisher document to a PDF and
then Place that into PageMaker, or save the PDF pages as TIFF images to
Place into PageMaker ... either way it has to be done one page at a
time and the pages from Publisher won't be able to be edited.

You're probably better off re-doing the layout in PageMaker itself.
