TL;DR
Analyzing Pulse Height vs. Time Response of a Scintillator Detector in Front of a Pulsed X-Ray Source
F8 tally is pulse height tally use in MCNP. Is it possible to see pulse height vs. time response in MCNP (as we can see on the oscilloscope) of, say, a scintillator detector placed in front of a pulsed X-ray source?

I don't think so. Try using an F8 and then use the pulse details of the source, the decay time of the scintillator, and any charge integration in the preamp or processing to predict the pulse shape. Good luck!
