apart from the one that doesn't exist, yes.
It's on pages 9-23 of "Tasha's Cauldron of Everything." The Artillerist subclass or the Battle Master subclass are both very much the "gun artificers" that you mentioned. For a little extra ballistic goodness, there's a few good feats in there that you can choose as well (I recommend the Gunner feat and/or the Piercer feat, both on page 80).

artillerist and battle *smith are very much not gun artificers, ESPECIALLY with spelljammer getting straight up guns. the artillerist is a wandslinger with portable not-quite-siege-until-level-15 weapons and the battle smith is a pet subclass. you can fit guns INTO them (well, the battle smith anyway - ironically enough i don't think they'd work very well with the artillerist since it's very eldritch cannon/spell heavy), but they are not themselves gun artificers.
edit: an example of a gun artificer would be the gunsmith from this unearthed arcana. it is a subclass about gun. gun artificer.
Now they need to introduce a gunslinging artificer with spelljammer flavor
everybody gangster til the artificer swings around the ship using its gravity plane and blasts your cap off with extra attack

Well it sounds like your mind is made up. I'll stop trying to help.
