Yes! In fact this is how I discovered that I have aphantasia. Twice, on the verge of waking up, I had vivid mental images. This bizarre experience (for me) led me to discover what aphantasia is and that I have it. It only happened twice though and I'm not sure why or how it was triggered, and I haven't been able to do it again.

I had a hypnopompic hallucination only once and it was incredible. Researching it was what lead me down the path to find out about aphantasia and that I have it. I have been pretty depressed ever since, whenever I think about it. I know what I’m missing out on now. Now I realise that even my dreams are deficient, I never actually see anything – just kind of know where I am and what is happening in the dream.
