Can user's SAML-session/token be transmitted

Hi,

Use case is to use SSO SAML in Community and Salesforce acts as service provider and external system is identity provider. I need to pass
SAML session/token to external Web Service via REST API(HTTP Post) to authenticate user and get data from external system to Salesfoce after user logs to Salesforce. Is this possible scenario or should I consider different authentication method?
