What is the current behavior? It is possible to configure environmentVariables to override a .env file with env variables on build time. So when I configure this:

<configuration>
    <installDirectory>node_target</installDirectory>
    <npmInheritsProxyConfigFromMaven>false</npmInheritsProxyConfigFromMaven>
    <nodeVersion>v18.14.2</nodeVersion>
    <environmentVariables>
        <MY_VARIABLE>${env.CUSTOM_VARIABLE}</MY_VARIABLE>
    </environmentVariables>
</configuration>

and run

export CUSTOM_VARIABLE=someValue
mvn clean install

the value for MY_VARIABLE is set to someValue.

Is there any way to change that value without rebuilding the application? for example in a docker container or kubernetes cluster?
