Make VS Code to execute python script in an already running terminal (Ubuntu)

Question

If I have a terminal already running with the required variables exported, is there a way to tell VS Code: "when I press run, start the script in this terminal, instead of starting a new one" while also allow debugging using vs code breakpoints.

We could change the line "console:" as the following in launch.json:

"console": "externalTerminal",
