Is it possible to set KotlinCompile.kotlinOptions.freeCompilerArgs via CLI, when executing a gradle task?

Context : I have my Android project’s root gradle file configured as bellow, this is to be able to generate Jetpack Compose compiler metrics.

subprojects {
    tasks.withType(org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile).configureEach {
        kotlinOptions {
            if (project.findProperty("enableComposeReports") == "true") {
                freeCompilerArgs += ["-P", "plugin:androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin:reportsDestination=" + rootProject.buildDir.absolutePath + "/compose_metrics/"]
            }
        }
    }
}

So, instead of setting this up in gradle, can I pass these freeCompilerArgs via CLI when executing a gradle task itself?
Something like this (this is just an example):

./gradlew assembleRelease -Pkotlin.compiler.arguments="plugin:androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin:reportsDestination=<path>"

Only if you code such a forward from command line to the task. There is no generic "set property X of task Y" command line option.
