No, because those variables don't even exist when there
isn't a call to the function in progress.

Your example suggests that, instead of local variables,
you really want them to be attributes of your object
somehow. The best way to go about that will depend on
how you want to use them.

If you explain more about the problem you're trying
to solve, we may be able to suggest a solution.
