Are credentials stored on memory safe?

Let’s say a server is compromised, the server is getting credentials to be used elsewhere from something like secret manager in aws, is it possible for someone to get the credentials in plaintext from memory if a process is running and getting those credentials to be used?

I dont want the nitty gritty details in how to do it (if you want to share them go ahead no worries!)

i just want to know if its possible.
