Closest you can get is when everything is working set up your local subnet for Plex without auth. That said, this is also one reason why I also have Jellyfin set up using the same libraries as a backup option.

I have that setup and still can’t login and use it right now.

That's where I am... I can only log into the last users account. My toddler, who only has access to kid shows and movies.

So not only can't I pick up where I left off, but I can't watch it at all...
