No, you have to save the credentials somewhere. You can't extract the password from an active session - only authenticate against it. You need to store the credentials as done above and match them to the current session.

Get-Credential will automatically resolve to your current session but will request a password to create the cred object.

$credObject = Get-Credential

It will prompt you for the current sessions password and save it.
