Yes. But you need to set your variable to be a node-set
rather than a result tree fragment. This is covered, though
not necessarily clearly, in Section 11.2 of the XSLT spec.
It's the difference between
<xsl:with-param name="p">node-set</xsl:with-param>
and
<xsl:with-param name="p" select="node-set"/>
(Section 11.6 deals with xsl:with-param).

Xalan now has a nodeset extension, if you want to go the
conversion route. But it looks like you can just set the
param to be a node-set right away.
