Not really. We can just make guess based on the references made in HTML comments and file name/path of the src files etc..

that is not possible. AEM renders HTML and you cannot look at the HTML to determine if AEM is involved.

While technically it is not possible to find out if AEM is rendering a page, there are strong indications that AEM was involved. Regarding the version ... that's really unlikely.
