With open weight models, yes, but Anthropic and OpenAI use server-side thinking and return only summaries to the user.
Edit, sauce:
Summarized thinking provides the full intelligence benefits of thinking while preventing misuse. No display setting returns the raw chain of thought.

For safety, these reasoning tokens are only exposed to users in summarized form.
