Whilst you can certainly apply photometric data from .ies files to 3D models, a direct ies to obj conversion seems unlikely. Everything points to the fact that .ies files on their own can only be converted to similar ASCII related formats.

The table with program actions contains information about what each program is capable of doing with their files. This may be a good pointer for further searches for certain file conversions and help you find the converter you are looking for if our search result is insufficient for you. However, it is far from perfect and may sometimes show results which are not really usable because of the nature of the software handles the files. So a conversion that appears as possible, just because of matched actions, may in fact not be possible.
