Spool run out detection --> automatic change, material use from second head

Is there any way in Prusa Slicer or through GCode editing to solve the following?

I use Prusa XL Multitool printer. I am printing large volume objects. Is there any oportunity to automatically use filament (identical material) from second spool when first spool runs out?

It's not in Prusaslicer but I think it makes more sense to have it on the hardware side as the location of the spools you want to join may change.

Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge. I didn't expect the solution to be right in front of my eyes 🙂
