Nothing like that exists AFAIK. It would be difficult to do properly since a table is needed indicating corresponding parts of the two formats for synchronization and only kindlegen produces that currently.

The Enhanced Typesetting indicator in the Kindle Previewer indicates that the source file does not contain anything that would prevent is from being converted to KFX format which will be delivered to customers when published on Amazon.

It does not indicate that the MOBI will have Enhanced Typesetting when sideloaded. ET is a feature of KFX format.
