Is it possible to change code of flask without rerunning the flask server after deployment?

Consider, I have a flask server deployed which routes to multiple webpages. If I want to change content of one route, by changing its code, is it possible to reflect those changes in webpages without rerunning the flask server? It is possible to host and rerun other scripts on the linux server or entriely another flask server as long as the website url(port number and route) doesn't change.

Please suggest any way you can come up with!
