As of today (and as far as I know of), there's no direct way of getting the UI Theme in a Lightning Component without implementing a server side controller.

The Salesforce Developers Blog on the topic Introducing UI Theme Detection for Lightning Experience mentions this, excerpt below:

You can’t determine the user’s UI theme directly within a Lightning Component because it only has access to a limited set of global values. You must implement an Apex server-side controller to provide this information.

I wouldn't recommend it, but you could look through the DOM for the data-aura-rendered-by property.

document.querySelectorAll('[data-aura-rendered-by]');

If you find it, you're in Lightning Experience.

There's no guarantee this won't change, so...be ready for your code to break!

I would always use an Apex controller instead, caching the response to lighten the load.

String theme = UserInfo.getUiThemeDisplayed();

More info, including working sample code here:
