No, as far as I am aware, there aren't any.

It has been done for Microsoft's User Interface Automation API under Mono,
for use with applications written in C#.

I'm not aware of any application that would be portable, which supports
IAccessible2 and which might be run under Linux/UNIX, so I'm not sure that
there are any use cases to justify doing the work.

In the case of Java and Mono, the environments were specifically designed to
be available under multiple operating systems and we really need those bridges
to ATK.
