YES!

Use a home-made "special interface cable". Put a 1/8" plug on one end, and
on the other end get 2ea 1K resistors
(any value from 1K to 4.7K will work, as long as they are the same).
Put resistor #1 in series with the inner conductor and the tip of the 1/4"
plug. Put resistor #2 from
the tip to ground.

This makes a simple 2:1 divider. And it all fits inside the plug casing.
