Not for a 9spd your stuck with 11-28 or 11-32.
Or if it really means that much to you you can pull the pins on 2 LX cassettes and make a new one. Or if you have an old bolt together 8S cass w/ a 30t, judt steal that and replace the largest cog on a 9s, or add it to a smaller/ nicer 9s cassette by removing the second smallest cog to create the needed space.
Yeah
LX (cs-hg70-9)11-30 11,12,14,16,18,21,24,28,32 plus 11-34 11,13,15,17,20,23,26,30,34 equals
11,12,13,14,15,17,20,23,26,30 or a bunch of other combos

If you're in good with your local LBS, you could even see if they have a few borderline used cassettes kicking around. Many mechanics hang on to that sort of thing. Even an 8s cog will work with no problems.
Why does it have to be 11 -30? Just take a cassette with the second highest cog being a 30 tooth and lock out the highest cog with your derailleur. You'll also gain the benefit of not being able to overshift into your spokes if things get knocked out of alignment.
The 11-34 is now offered in the Nexave(sp?) line - same thing though.
Your problem is not being able to find a 30tooth last cog (the one which the pins screw into). I only know of 28, 32 & 34 available that are interchangeable.
The other difference between 11-32 and 11-34 is amount of pinned cogs (11-32 has 7, 11-34 has 6). The rest of cogs (2&3 respectively) are free before putting the lockdown ring on.
I mixed an 11-32 and 11-34 together to make a:
11, 13, 15, 17, 21, 24, 26, 28, 32
The ones in bold are from the 11-32
My purpose here was to have a closer ratio where I use it most (now 2nd-4th)
Good Luck
