Yes. The symbol is EasyEDA_Cloud:MAX203EWP+TG36 and the footprint Package_SO:SOP-20_7.5x12.8mm_P1.27mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the SP233ACT-L?

SOIC-20-300mil, with 20 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the SP233ACT-L datasheet?

MaxLinear publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the SP233ACT-L?

JLCPCB lists it as part C1544056, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the SP233ACT-L?

Parts like it in the library: the MAX230CWP+ by Maxim Integrated (Analog Devices), the MAX230EWP+ by Maxim Integrated (Analog Devices), the MAX3185CWP+ by Maxim Integrated (Analog Devices) and the MAX3233ECWP+G36 by Maxim Integrated (Analog Devices). Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
