Python Export Responses API Choice Text and Numeric

I have a survey that I will export the responses via API using a python script. Some of the questions should be exported as numeric values but others should have choice text. I know how to specify this for the entire dataset setting "useLabels" equal to true or false - but is there a way to specify which questions I want numeric and which questions I want choice text?
I can do an export both ways and then select the columns from their proper format and this will get me what I need. Hoping there is an easier way though so I only have to export the data once.
