Image overlay on mouse-over and mouse-height?

I want a overlay on an image, that goes up to the mouse height.

w3schools has a nice demo of an image overlay here, that goes a long way to what I want.

https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_css_image_overlay_slidebottom

Here the overlay height is defined as

.container:hover .overlay {
  height: 100%;
}

Is there a way to do define the height so that it goes up to the height of the image, assuming the mouse is over the image?

you can get this behavior using jQuery

$("div.container").mousemove(function(e){
  var avatarImg = $("#avatar");
  var avatarPosition = avatarImg.offset();
  var mousePositionX = e.pageX - avatarPosition.left;
  var mousePositionY = e.pageY - avatarPosition.top;
  var overlayNewHeight = avatarImg.height() - mousePositionY;
  $("div.overlay").height(overlayNewHeight);
});


$("div.container").mouseleave(function(){
  $("div.overlay").height(0);
});
.container {
  position: relative;
  width: 50%;
  margin-left: 100px;
  margin-top: 100px;
  border: black solid 1px;
}

#avatar {
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  height: auto;
}

.overlay {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 0;
  background-color: #008CBA;
  overflow: hidden;
  width: 100%;
  height: 0;
  transition: .5s ease;
}

.text {
  color: white;
  font-size: 20px;
  position: absolute;
  top: 50%;
  left: 50%;
  -webkit-transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
  -ms-transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
  transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}
<body>

<h2>Slide in Overlay from the Bottom</h2>
<p>Hover over the image to see the effect.</p>

<div class="container">
  <img src="https://i.imgur.com/I80W1Q0.png" alt="Avatar" class="image" id="avatar">
  <div class="overlay">
    <div class="text">Hello World</div>
  </div>
</div>

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.min.js"></script>
</body>
