Not natively. But you can create a dynamic resource that acts as a provisioner ala: https://www.pulumi.com/blog/dynamic-providers/#dynamic-providers-as-provisioners
Or just stuff the userdata as part of the VM declaration.

Different platforms have different solutions for this. I use SSM on AWS, in preference to userdata.
