Is it possible to conditionally block AJAX calls in Android webview?

I have implemented the URL whitelisting in the Android web view by using shouldOverrideUrlLoading.

 override fun shouldOverrideUrlLoading(view: WebView?, request: WebResourceRequest?): Boolean {
          if (isAllowedUrl(request?.url)) {
            return super.shouldOverrideUrlLoading(view, request)
          }else{
           // request external browser
           return true
          }
 }

This could intercept all the URL redirects. Is there any way to intercept background API calls made by the website? Our website making some analytics calls. I want to conditionally allow/block these requests. Is it possible to intercept those requests in the Android web view?

The shouldInterceptRequest can intercept all requests, but I couldn't find a way to block the request.
