Not sure what your goal is, but you can use environment variables which you are only exporting for the current session/aws_cli run.
To prevent in bash (asuming you are using linux) that the export is written to history, you can use a space infront of the command.

This should be an accepted answer. @Saurabh Kumar can you please accept this as an answer if this solved your problem just like it did mine? – 300 Mar 01 '23 at 17:25

You can start an EC2 instance and give that instance a role that allows it to read from your S3 bucket.
Once started, connect to the EC2 instance using ssh and initiate your S3 transfer using aws s3 cp...ˋ or ˋaws s3 sync...
