Is it possible in macOS Sonoma, wake from sleep only with Touch ID? (means not with a password)

Control Command Q will lock the screen & sleep within seconds...


Log out, sleep, wake, restart or shut down your Mac

Shut down or restart your Mac - Apple Support


Use Touch ID on Mac - Apple Support


There are a few instances where Touch ID will not be accepted by macOS:


• If you restarted your Mac, or if you're not logged into your user account.

• If you have not unlocked your Mac for 48 hours.

• If you are trying to unlock Security & Privacy

• If you are trying to unlock Users & Groups Settings (when FileVault is on)

• If 5 wrong fingerprint attempts
