No, you cannot. This is for security reason. Otherwise, you will not be able to create a new (child) token and share it with someone, cause in this case lookup will be able to reveal your (parent) token, that is not acceptable.

In general, the output for lookup command contains id part. This is the token value. For lookup command with --accessor flag id is always n/a in response.
