Deltegen python - create references

In Deltagen 2024x, I can "copy/paste" a group with Objects.cloneSceneObject(). Is there any way to simulate a "paste as reference" ?

cloned_obj = Objects.cloneSceneObject(obj, active_scene)

if cloned_obj:
	new_group.addChild(cloned_obj)
	logger.logInfo(f"Cloned object '{obj.name()}' and added it to group '{new_group.name()}'.")
else:
	logger.logError(f"Failed to clone object '{obj.name()}'.")
