Is there a way to include multiple duplicates of the same label within a single polygon in QGIS?

So a single polygon(s) with a label from a single field, repeated at a set distance within the polygon - shown in the image as made by ArcMap Maplex engine.

Go to the Layer Properties > Symbology and set the Symbol by Fill > Point Pattern Fill > Marker > Font Marker.

Then scroll down to find Data Defined Override (small dropdown icon) next to the Character(s), and select your field to display as the label.

Distance, displacement, offsets can be adjusted by selecting Point Pattern Fill.
