No, not by default. I think you'd need to create snapshots of your workspaces and artifacts in them (names, and other meta data, not the object itself) and then run comparisons between snapshots on a regular basis.

You could use the REST API to create those snapshots, then store them somewhere. Use whatever tool you want to compare them - Power BI would certainly work, but if you are storing the data in SQL Server, then simple comparison queries might be enough.
