change inija2 template file with jquery or javascript

I have no idea how, but would like to know if it is possible to change the file in the jinja2 include statement.

such as:
{% include file.name %} to {% include file1.name %}

Since the file.name is in include parentheses, I could not use {{ file.name }} to achieve this.

Thought maybe I could use something like jquery,

$(".btnt").click(function(){
    $("section:fourth").replaceWith("{% include 'file1.name' %}");}

maybe initiate with button click, would this have to be on same page. I tend to use flask python for most projects.

    Actually used jinja2 to read variable to decide which file.name to use

    {% if var %}
{% include file.name %}
{% else %}
{% include file1.name %}
{% endif %}

    This checks var for true, set from flask render template arguments. If true uses file.name, if false uses file1.name

    Hey there is a technique which i use to transfer server side rendering to client side. it is basically returing json to the template itself directly. Like this:

    app.py

    from flask import Flask,render_template
import json
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def index():
    return render_template("a.html",dumps=json.dumps,data={"hello":"hello"})

    a.html

    <script>
    var jsonString = '{{dumps(data)}}'
    var data = JSON.parse(jsonString)
</script>

    This code should help you to use jinja in your scripts. But I recommend you to use APIs that return json data instead of this. For that you can use $.getJSON method.
