That would be a no - not been available for many years now. Assuming the std BBS wheels, size was 235 60 VR 15 at the back and 195 60 VR 15 at the front. Pirelli do something nominally the right size but to mixed reviews, though some seem to like them. Many have put on different size tyres to give more choice - typically 225 at the back.

Hi - I have an 'old' Giugiaro Turbo Esprit original fit Eagle NCT rear - 235 60 VR15.
Its used and is down to only around 3mm tread down the centre.
As such probably not road legal and given the age of the tyre probably not best used however if someone wants an original profile tyre for show etc? .............
