Yes, there are several ways you can do this. You can either use the op item get command with the --otp flag to return the OTP, or you can use the op read command to read a secrets reference with the attribute query parameter.

Examples:
op item get ExampleItem --otp
op read "op://development/GitHub/Security/one-time password?attribute=otp"
