Is there a Component/Marginal VaR for the Monte Carlo simulation approach?

is there a Component/Marginal VaR for Monte Carlo Simulation VaR? or Does it exists only for normal VaR? :roll:

You can just fix the random variable (vector) for a scenario across all the securities/risk factors. Then you can use it to calculate Marginal VaR

Thanks Finatos for reply, but don't understand what you mean  :( would you happen to have an excel sheet example  :idea:
