Sorry no. See the following from If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support


Find My [device] is the only way that you can track or locate a lost or missing device. If Find My [device] isn't enabled on your device before it goes missing, there's no other Apple service that can find, track, or flag your device for you.


The link above does have some other things you may want to do (e.g., change passwords).
