Draw angle between axis and line using pgfplots

Question

i tried to draw a angle between a line, and the X axis using pgfplots, i saw a lot of ways using tikz and other packages but, there is any way to do this using pgfplots?
documentclass{article}

usepackage{pgfplots}

begin{document}

begin{tikzfigure}
    begin{axis}[
            axis x line = center,
            axis y line = center,
            xlabel = $x$,
            ylabel = $y$,
              xmin=-1.0,
              xmax=3.0,
              ymin=-1.0,
              ymax=3.0,
          disabledatascaling,
          axis equal,
        ]
    addplot [->, color=blue] coordinates {(0, 0) (2, 3)};
end{axis}

end{tikzfigure}
end{document}

What can i write to get an angle like this?

Not directly, but I also do not see a need for that. But of course you can just define 3 coordinates and then use the angles library to draw angles were needed.
% used PGFPlots v1.17
documentclass[border=5pt]{standalone}
usepackage{pgfplots}
    usetikzlibrary{
        angles,
        quotes,
    }
    % use this `compat` level or higher so TikZ coordinates
    % are in axis units by default
    pgfplotsset{compat=1.11}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
    begin{axis}[
        axis lines=center,
        xlabel=$x$,
        ylabel=$y$,
        xmin=-1.0,
        xmax=3.0,
        ymin=-1.0,
        ymax=3.0,
        disabledatascaling,
        axis equal,
    ]
        coordinate (xaxis) at (pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/xmax},0);
        coordinate (origin) at (0,0);
        addplot [->,blue] coordinates {(0, 0) (2, 3)}
            coordinate [at end] (A)
        ;
        path (xaxis) -- (origin) -- (A)
            pic [
                draw,
                ->,
                red,
                angle radius=10mm,
                angle eccentricity=1.2,
                "$theta$",
            ] {angle = xaxis--origin--A}
        ;
    end{axis}
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
