Fusion360 is the only tool I've seen that can automatically generate lathe tool paths. It is pretty much "point and click" but there is a lot of pointing and clicking to specify the cut depth and your tool angle and a dozen other things. Then it generates a g-code file and can run the file in simulation (but LinuxCNC can also run it in simulation)
The software is free for hobby users and start-up businesses.
