Is there a way to specify in GDscript what side of a CollisionShape2D's Rectangle Shape is being collided with or detected?

For example, if my player jumped on top of an enemy or walked into it. Can I do this without having to make separate collision shapes for the top and sides of my enemy?

Raycast node placed on one side of the collider? For better accuracy you could potentially use multiple and a for loop.
