No. There are no built-in from-string-converters for Thickness or Brush in UWP.
But here's how you can create a StringToSolidColorBrushConverter.
And here's the source code of .NET's System.Windows.ThicknessConverter. Though, it works only in .NET Framework, you can take the converter algorithm from the FromString(..) method.
