AFAIK, no. since this requires a lot of hardware to get this working. If you don't have virtualization, then you can set up an Azure or AWS account with 2 VMs and practice there.
If you have a machine with 8GB, you can use Virtual Box (free) And create two machines to practice with there.
We have resources to learn with here: https://www.sqlservercentral.com/stairways/stairway-to-alwayson

i3/8GB will work, but things may run slow. A lot of resources to run 2-3 machines to do so. Virtual Box is free, as is HyperV. I'd try for 12-16 GB, and SSD drives, but you can do it slowly with less. I think you can easily get a SQL Server VM to run in 2GB, maybe 1.5GB of RAM.
