The only way I can think of right off hand is to have the artwork scanned, but I don't think that won't get you to a gerber output. You would then have to copy or trace that file with software that has a gerber output. I don't have a name for a scanning company, but if you look in the pcb trade magazines I'm sure you'll see some there.
