No unfortunately, the support for iPXE was only added in foreman-proxy API. You will see some iPXE templates in foreman core, but these serves for a different purpose.
To be honest, I am missing motivation for putting iPXE templates onto TFTP because the stack does support HTTP/HTTPS therefore you can directly access iPXE templates in foreman (or via templates proxy plugin as well).
