Is it possible to access variables from a Bash script in PHP using shell_exec?

When using `shell_exec` in PHP to run a Bash script, it is not possible to directly access variables from the Bash script within the PHP script. However, you can pass variables from PHP to the Bash script as command line arguments and then retrieve the output of the Bash script in PHP. 

$variable = "hello";
$output = shell_exec("bash your_script.sh $variable");
echo $output;
