For sure - Here is the code to reset a password for an existing user:

>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User 
>>> user = User.objects.get(email='test@whatever.com') 
>>> user.set_password('new_raw_password') 
>>> user.save() 
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

P.S. the password should be in plain text (Django handles the encryption).
