The tool is called a router, they "convert" frame relay frames to Ethernet all the time ;-)

There are Frame Relay packets that do not correspond to any type of
Ethernet packet, so that is not possible in the general case.

In the particular case of IP packets, I don't know of any tool that
will strip off the Frame Relay header and replace it with a fake
Ethernet header (with fake source and destination addresses and the
appropriate Ethernet type).

Why do you want to do this?
