If I understand the subject correctly (and I am awfully new to this and try
learning by answering questions) HDLs currently have no support for analog
circuitry, and FPGAs certainly does not have it.
That said however, you should be able to make ADC support on-chip with a
couple of external analog circuits to implement the ADC. There are numerous
ways to implement an ADC this way, switched capacitor, stepper and
integrating comes to my mind right now.
Your requirement would determine the best choice.
But you will need at least an op-amp or a comparator off-chip, and some
resistors. If you don't have a external Sample-Hold, you can also forget
about an integrating ADC.
And considering the low-cost, small form factor of modern ADCs, I don't think
it is worthwhile bothering.
