Your first mistake is even considering turning PSD into any kind of website.
Photoshop is not a UI/UX tool and no one in their right mind will use it as such.
Turning Figma/XD/Sketch into website is a thing though because those programs are made for that purpose.
Regarding your question, it's possible with Elementor plugin if you're using WordPress, but I just prefer building custom websites in Webflow.

I understand what you are trying to achieve but that is a long way in today's time. You might be having a layout design ready in PSD but preparing it into HTML and then integrating into Wordpress is not an ideal thing now. I used to do that around 10 years ago. (Yes, I hand coded by first websites from PSD layout designing to hand coding a Wordpress theme... It was a great learning experience).
But in today's fast paced time this is not needed. There are plenty of lightweight, well coded beautiful themes available. We have front end website builders like DIVI and Elementar available. You can create any type of responsive design without touching the actual code.
Do you still want to go a long route?

It's not hard to turn a basic PSD design to WordPress, but please note that if you want a functionality developed, it's not that easy to 'turn' from a PSD to WordPress without knowledge of PHP and CSS.

It depends a lot on how the designer has designed the mockup. If the layout is simple and clean then Divi or Elementor can easily match that.
However in most of the cases it should match actually.
If you want to learn Divi builder, then you can follow the video tutorial in Elegant Themes You Tube channel or a Divi video tutorial by any creator.
Learning how to use Divi is just a child's play.

Converting a PSD to WordPress can be challenging or easy, depending on the PSD complexity and your WordPress knowledge. Since you know HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and WordPress, it should be manageable. Use a pre-built theme and ensure responsiveness. Integrate PHP, test thoroughly, and seek resources if needed. Good luck!
