Dear Martin,

It is possible within Toolset Views plugin, you can download it here:
https://toolset.com/account/downloads/

for example, you can try these:
1) Dashboard-> Toolset-> Views, Create a post view:
- Query your CPT posts
- Filter by:
Select posts with taxonomy:
custom taxonomy the same as the page where this View is shown
- In view's loop, display the CPT post information

2) Display above post view's shortcode in the single post content.

More help:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/filtering-views-by-taxonomy/

Value set by the current page where this View is shown:
The View is always inserted somewhere. That page where the View is inserted is responsible for setting the taxonomy term. This is good when you want the same View to return different results, according to the page it’s inserted to.
