Hi thanulee,
no sorry, it is not possible. The render passes are designed to work with linear response curve.

Thanks for the reply.
So i was wondering why this exists then "Save as tonemapped EXR image: Saves current render buffer as a tonemapped exr image."
There is no information in exr it clamps it down to 8bit if u use tonemap, so why this kind of export? cheers

Hi thanulee,
are you referring to the shortcut in Live View?
The tonemapped/untonemapped option and the saving file format option are separated, so it is just a saving option combination shortcut for LV.
Without this option, the saved image could vary a lot if opened in compositing without a Linear Camera response curve.
