Is it possible to use variables set previously in a task in the Edit Activity of my plugin?

I've read that thoroughly but I don't think it answers my question. Let me try clarify my question: I already know how to set variables when the action is run.
My question is let's say someone sets a variable %test in their task and after that calls my plugin. Is it possible to get the value of %test in my Edit Activity (i.e. The part of the plugin where the user configures plugin settings).
I know you can do this in the broadcast receiver (when the action is run/fired) by telling Tasker to filter a specific variable in your bundle.

Oh, I don't think you'll get the value in the activity, sorry for misunderstanding. You get the automatically replaced text when the action is fired though :)

Yeah my question was originally kind of vague.

Does that mean it's not possible? I want to use it to get built in variables like %LOL etc.

were you able to solve it ?
I am playing around toast example and wanted the same functionality. That is when I user enters %DAYW in toast action activity it should be replaced by current day....
in tasker Flash action can replace the variable to actual value.
I am able to do that in toast plugin at the moment. Any pointers would be appreciated
