Load data from exported environment variables in laravel

The context is I currently working with laravel framework. Is it possible if I want to move all configs in .env file into system environment variables? so I don't need .env file anymore. So I will do:

export APP_NAME=Laravel
export APP_ENV=local
export APP_KEY=
export APP_DEBUG=true
export APP_URL=http://localhost
...

then remove the .env file. What should I do to make laravel read all configurations from exported environment variables instead of read from .env file? Thank you

Can't understand why you want overhead of environment variables when Laravel itself give the functionality of accessing .env variables using

env('APP_NAME')

All of the variables listed in the .env file will be loaded into the $_ENV PHP super-global when your application receives a request so alternatively you can use $_ENV['APP_NAME'] also.
