In Mechanical scripting how can I create a Named Selection that is scoped to a list of node numbers?

I have a list of node numbers in a CSV file. I would like to create a named selection with the node numbers, so that I can visualize where are these nodes located at the mesh.
Is this possible with Mechanical Scripting?

- nodeIDs = [1,3,9]
- ns = ExtAPI.DataModel.Project.Model.AddNamedSelection()
- ns.ScopingMethod = ns.ScopingMethod.Worksheet
- for nodeID in nodeIDs:
- criterion=Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.NamedSelectionCriterion()
- criterion.Action= criterion.Action.Add
- criterion.EntityType = criterion.EntityType.MeshNode
- criterion.Criterion = criterion.Criterion.NodeNumber
- criterion.Operator = criterion.Operator.Equal
- criterion.Value = nodeID
- ns.GenerationCriteria.Add(criterion)
- ns.Generate()
