It would've been simple for all the Ryzen CPUs to launch at once, since they're all based on the same silicon, but again AMD chose to release them in a staggered fashion. And I can't actually remember Threadripper being on the consumer roadmap ahead of launch, despite being a real product that launched.
The question isn't "Is there a launched AMD product that matches this description?". It's "Would it be possible, or even simple, for AMD to launch a product that meets this description, if they wanted to?". And given what we know, I'd say the answer to that second question is a resounding yes.
