I’ve tried that and it didn’t work reliably for me. The jet brains runtime release works but it’s a bear to figure out which download to use.

Regardless, it’s ridiculous that at this point Java doesn’t have full hotswap. All the hooks are there (as is apparent from the error messages when a hotswap fails) and the dcevm is being maintained by jetbrains employees. It needs an internal champion at oracle/sun.
