First define "easy" and "precisely." They kind of work against each other here.
Without removing the fork from the frame? Not really. Some sort of jig is the only way to measure precisely. But that isn't easy.
Lots of CFRP forks have the rake printed on the serial number tag, or can be looked up on mfrs. web sites. Other materials generally do not.
