There is likely a very hackish way to do it involving bytecode disassembly, but it's ill-advised. Further, what if the variable isn't a constant, as `y` is in the following example?: def foo(self, x): y = x + 3 What would you expect to get for y's value? Why would you want such an ability in the first place? I suspect that if you explained your use-case/situation, someone could offer a much better alternative approach.
