   Sure,

   place an id attribute at the last block in your document like:

   <fo:block id = "lastBlock">
   ...
   </fo:block>

   Now you can access the pagenumber of this last block by using:

   <fo:page-number-citation ref-id = "lastBlock"/>

What happens if a float floats past this "last" block, creating another
page? Don't you end up with "page 21 of 20" ?
