This is not argument parsing. I'm pretty sure Node doesn't even do anything, it just gets an array of strings from the CLI, argv C style isn't getting options prefixed with - or -- directly from the CLI, and putting them in a map or something. So no, node has no facility in its standard library for that. Node is not known for its extensive standard library in anyway.
