Yes, this functionality is currently hidden in

unicode_aswidechar(PyUnicodeObject *unicode,
                   wchar_t *w,
                   Py_ssize_t size):

/* Helper function for PyUnicode_AsWideChar() and
PyUnicode_AsWideCharString():
   convert a Unicode object to a wide character string.

   - If w is NULL: return the number of wide characters (including the
nul
     character) required to convert the unicode object. Ignore size argument.
.. */

and I believe is reimplemented in a few other places.
