There is if you use Termux (on a rooted device).

Termux has been the most important app on my phone. I just get the familiar CLI for everything. For example, MTP has been unreliable in my experience, there’s probably lots of apps in Play Store to send/receive files of questionable quality.
And then with Termux I can just rsync over SSH as usual.
Or browse files with SSHFS.

Being pedantic, termux is a vm, sudo not native.

  Nope. You need root access to use sudo. It just runs a shell natively under Android. But you can run QEMU inside Termux.
  
  Without root, you get this:
  
  No 'su' binary found SU_SEARCH_PATHS: /system/bin/su /debug_ramdisk/su /system/xbin/su /sbin/su /sbin/bin/su /system/sbin/su /su/xbin/su /su/bin/su /magisk/.core/bin/su sudo requires a 'su' binary that supports the '-c', '--shell', '--preserve-environment' and '--mount-master' options
