It certainly can't do that, because LaserDisc is not
covered by Red Book. It's not even digital data.
LaserDisc video is analogue. You definitely need a
real LaserDisc player for this.
(You could, of course, try to borrow a LaserDisc player
from somewhere, then digitize the video with a Bt848
card and make an MPEG from it.)
