The short answer is no. The slightly longer answer is that someone, somewhere might have written a converter, but if such a thing should turn up, I'd wager it only works for versions well over ten years out of date.

...or, as @BobLevine  already mentioned, you can do it for free: Quark can open both IDML and INDD files (which I didn't know):

I'll stand to be corrected but I'm quite sure that new versions of Quark can open IDML files.

You're almost certainly correct. I completely spaced on the fact that QXP, like Corel (and, speaking of which, WordPerfect), is actually still around.

 

I'll go stand in the corner now. 🙂
