Not exactly this, but there was a proposal that would allow for typescript type hints to be considered as normal JS syntax: (in the same way python PEP 484 – Type Hints are considered optional type hints)

https://github.com/tc39/proposal-type-annotations

Deno on the server side is pretty cool and uses https://swc.rs/ (Speedy Web Compiler) - doesn't take forever to start, but kinda implements typescript as if it was just a type annotations without the more in-depth actual type checking, so it is possible.
