Sure. The easiest way is this:

  (map nil 'ql-dist:ensure-installed (ql-dist:provided-releases t))

Then all sources currently in Quicklisp will be present in
~/quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/.

Someone(tm) should write a search engine that can answer questions like
yours instantly via offline indexing of all public CL code!
