This is entirely possible with Claude as it existed even last year.

The LLMs are quite good at re-writes and even better when provided an 'oracle' like a well rounded test suite or existing implementation to work against.

Its part of the reason we keep seeing "I rewrote <library> in <language>" posts on hackernews and when you look at the repo its more like I prompted claude to rewrite this repo in rust or whatever.
