Is it possible to jump to a cue, say cue 1, and at the touch of a button (aka vdjscript) jump back to the position where you where when you pushed the cue 1 button?
What I want to achieve is to insert a break (a specially prepared, edited piece of a song, like a beat pattern, that is part of the same sound file but is located 5 secs. after the end of the song) into a song and then continue with the song, all seamless...

just use 2 hot cues

No time for that. With the push of a button I need to pause the song and jump to the break, play that looped, and then at the push of another or the same button be able to return to the song (un-pause) and continue to play it (from where I paused it)...

Thanks @PhantomDeejay. What does the "2" mean?

What would the entire vdjscript line be to achieve this (with the same button)?

maybe something like this as a up/down button
or something like this as a latch
down ? set_cue 20 & hot_cue 1 : hot_cue 20 & delete_cue 20
or something like this as a latch
has_cue 20 ? hot_cue 20 & delete_cue 20 : set_cue 20 & hot_cue 1

It means that the track will jump and keep playing from hotcue 2 while you are holding down the button.
When the button gets released, the track will return and keep playing from where it was.
YES, in order to use it you need to put the minimal effort in and create a hotcue (which can also be a saved loop BTW) before your special "brake" part. That would be necessary on ANY possible case though, since the program can't guess WHERE to jump.

Thank you both for sharing your wisdom! I'll go and experiment with what you gave me.
I intended to make cues for the start of the break parts but didn't think it could be loops. Thanks for that Phantom! I'll look into that too!
Very happy.
