Is it possible to do transient simulation with and without transient noise in one go?

Hello,
I want to do a transient simulation with and without transient noise.
Is it possible to do these in one go?
So, basically it is like config sweep, but for transient noise.

    In the transient noise analysis, set noisefmax to be VAR("FMAX"), say. Then you can sweep the variable FMAX to be 0,4G (for example). With it set to 0, transient noise will be off; with set to 4G, it would be 4GHz.

    I think using isnoisy as dynamic parameter in a transient noise analysis is also a good way. This way you can avoid having noise e.g. during circuit startup part. Can save a lot of time.

    That is of course true, but it isn't really what delgsywas asking (as far as I can see).

    I think your solution will work.
    I have tried using VAR("FMAX") before but never tried to plug 0 as a value.
    If this is possible, then it fulfills what I need.
