scheduled passenger line , very rarely at most. Princess Cruises shows a ship departing Dublin in Sept, with an eventual destination of Florida.
freighter. maybe, check sites like https://www.freightercruises.com/voyages.php
private boat hire - yes. what's your budget?

YOu can from some places, not sure about Ireland. But you can from England (eg, LIverpool), Netherlands and some other countries, like Germany and France.

Trans-Atlantic Passenger Sailings [The Cruise People Ltd]

And that isn't a luxury cruise company which has various offerings. You could try some cargo ship companies.

There are also ferries from Ireland to France, though not to Le Havre.
