During hallucinations and near death experiences, you can experience certain experiences and mental states you had in the past. These experiences and mental states can be brought back to you during a hallucination. But can this also include the altered and strange mental states we experienced in our dreams and nightmares?

In nightmares, for example, you are able to experience these completely altered mental states which are horrible. There is no way to describe what they are like. They are entirely new experiences unlike any other. So I am wondering if these mental states can also be brought back during a hallucination/nde.

I am wondering if these mental states can only be experienced during the dream state or if they can actually be experienced during a hallucination/nde during your waking life.

Dreams/nightmares are different than hallucinations. They are a distinct neurological state from hallucinations. So that is why I was wondering whether those altered mental states experienced in dreams/nightmares can only be experienced during dreams/nightmares or if they can actually be experienced while awake during a hallucination or a near death experience.
