Take a look at the following thread that details a way to do this with Token Inline Hooks (a Custom Authorization Server is required for this option): [Validate access token is linked to Okta session - #2 by andrea](https://devforum.okta.com/t/validate-access-token-is-linked-to-okta-session/13052/2)

Note that the session id is only available in the payload sent to the Inline Hook during a new OAuth flow. It will NOT be present if a refresh token is used to get new tokens for the user.
