no there is not, you'll either have to be released from the guard or wait until your contract is over, then go speak with a recruiter.

Go speak with a Marine recruiter. IF the Marine Corps will accept you then you can apply for a Conditional Release from the Guard.

However, the Corps is being reduced in size and are accepting even very few Marine vets for re-enlistment. Thus your chances of being accepted into the Corps are slim.

I presume that you are aware that you have to start at ground zero in the Marines with boot camp, etc. The best rank you will retain would be E-2 (PFC) upon graduation from boot camp.
