Abaqus UMAT: Accessing Material Point Results

Hello,

When UMAT is called at a given integration point during a coupled temp-displacement simulation, is it possible for UMAT to be able to access material point results (temperature, stress, strain, etc.) at other locations on the model?

For example, when UMAT is called at integration point 1 within some element, is it possible to access temperature at integration point 3.

The goal of this is to calculate an average temperature within the element by averaging over the 4 integration points.

Thank you
