I don't think so. Thus everyone looking for a free client. The PuTTY client being popular. The offical is at a ~sgtatham/putty/ web address which seems very old school.

There's also Cygwin, which comes with the OpenSSH server in addition to the client. For a preconfigured Cygwin when I needed it, found Babun to be useful: https://babun.github.io/ https://babun.github.io/
