How can I generate the Abstract Syntax Tree for a CoffeeScript File?

I realize that CoffeeScript compiles to JavaScript. But is it possible to generate an AST for CoffeeScript without having to convert it first?

You can find the source for the nodes created by the CoffeeScript compiler here.

It's been a while since I investigated the best way to do this but when I wrote CoffeeDocTest, I used the CoffeeDoc wrapper of the CoffeeScript parser.
