Not really. If you wanted to make a project out of it you might be able to make some sort of customized dip stick set up but it would probably not be worth it.
"Dip stick" version? I assume you mean manual? You'd have to add a clutch and pedal assembly/slave cylinder, shift levers, reprogram ECM, probably will impact rear diff. and driveshaft, way too much money and work. Just sell the car and get one with a manual if that's what you want.
If you are talking about an automatic Torrent there is a small dipstick but you can’t see it or access it without a lift and removing some stuff.

I'm told from my Mechanic, that the 2009 Pontiac Torrent doesn't even have a Dipstick for the TRANSMISSION. He said that my Transmission is sealed and you're not supposed to have to add or replace the TRANSMISSION Fluid. Know my 2009 Pontiac Torrent is slipping going from 1st to 2nd Gear, and I just thought that I needed some tranny fluid, but Mechanic says that I'll need to replace the whole transmission. I hope that he's correct, and I'm glad that my WARRANTY covers replacing the TRANSMISSION.
The dipstick is har to see, and get to. It's under the car hiding behind a motor mount that you need to take loose just to get barely enough room to get the dipstick bolt off mine is at 140k miles, and I had a transmission line on a new radiator leak. It isnt easy getting the transmission fluid in there unless you have a funnel with a tube from the top of the engine.
