NO.
REXX has no <builtin> access to VSAM
but there are external function packages that can do that
for <bulk> VSAM processing just repro to a PS file, process, and repro back to VSAM

but if You are authorized to install <free> software You can tale a look at

or You can build a COBOL to access the vsam and pass the needed data to Rexx
