Not sure it is.

Default is to generate postcript, and then use ghostcript to output that
into PCL. If a PCL printer is specified.

Do you want a PCL file as output from a print queue? THAT should be
possible.

But you may have to commit mayhem with the lp subsytem. Somewhere in the
whole shebang a PCL file will exist temporarily if you print to a PCL
printer..
