Besides listToTuple then pblasucci has the right answer. But you wont be happy with the result unless you know something about type types involved, or if you wan't to do a lot of boxing and unboxing.

let tupleToList t = 
    if Microsoft.FSharp.Reflection.FSharpType.IsTuple(t.GetType()) 
        then Some (Microsoft.FSharp.Reflection.FSharpValue.GetTupleFields t |> Array.toList)
        else None

let listToTuple l =
    let l' = List.toArray l
    let types = l' |> Array.map (fun o -> o.GetType())
    let tupleType = Microsoft.FSharp.Reflection.FSharpType.MakeTupleType types
    Microsoft.FSharp.Reflection.FSharpValue.MakeTuple (l' , tupleType)
