Yes there is somewhere where one can practice such landings - a runway - OK it's not pitching but if it was in the 172 it would smash the thing to bits assuming a short field landing technique of a firm landing, then heavy on the brakes as the flaps come up. It the deck chose to rise just as one was executing the firm landing the result would be pretty bad.
There's nothing to stop one practicing to land in ever shorter distances - the only thing is it is a bit fake - so try some very short farm strips (imagine the the usual trees near the runway are the ship's superstructure!)
In the UK a good place if one want the land then full power experience would be Nayland - I remember twenty years ago watching those who thought full power meant some power stopping and rolling down the hill - there was a tractor or a Land Rover to tow those planes to the top. Always up the slope to land and down the slope (or for some with more power off the flat section at the top over the void - a la "ski jump".
