No. GBIC stands for Great Big Inserted Cartridge. LC stands for Little Connector. Thus they are not compatible.
LC is Little Click. As opposed to ST = Stab and Twist and SC = Stab and Click.
I haven't seen such a thing for GBIC to SFP and the height may be insufficient to do so, but in the 10G realm there are adapters that convert an X2 slot to accept SFP+.
I've never seen a native GBIC with LC connectors.There are these things, but you have to remove the clip on the LC side to separate them. https://www.fs.com/products/32579.html
