Is it possible to create a custom button on the Contact page layout for Create Lead

Possible to create a custom button on the Contact page layout for "Create Lead"?
Create Lead button should open a new lead creation menu and also copy over some key fields from the Contact like Account, Name, Title, Phone, Email, etc.
