Is it possible to modify the filename that is used when * is replaced by title tag?

The docs say

The special character * is automatically replaced with the value read from the host document's title tag

So in the callback can I access this value?

something like this? (I know this doesn't work)

filename: function () {
    let title = '*';
    return title.toLowerCase().replace(/ /g, '-') + '-' + new Date().toISOString();
}

or some other way?
