Yes, in general you can refer to
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_ethtool.c and in particular:

/**
 * ice_get_max_rxq - return the maximum number of Rx queues for in a PF
 * @pf: PF structure
 */
static int ice_get_max_rxq(struct ice_pf *pf)
{
	return min3(pf->num_lan_msix, (u16)num_online_cpus(),
		    (u16)pf->hw.func_caps.common_cap.num_rxq);
}
