I installed 'pmars-0.9.2' (its was unpacked from pmars-0.9.2.tar.gz) on Ubuntu 18.04, but with ./configure i also got a similar bash: ./configure: No such file or directory error. For the correct use of the command autoreconf -i i wrote in sequence:

# automake
# apt install automake
# apt install automake1.11
# autoreconf -i

and for me this already goes into another error:

autoreconf: 'configure.ac' or 'configure.in' is required

First make sure you are in that directory. Then before you use ./configure command.

$ autoreconf -i

and then ./configure. This worked for me.
