yes of course, Xpaths always work relative to the current node.

As I said in my first reply it's not at all clear that you need to define
those variables.  Either you just want the current node, or you have a
key set up which will get you quickly to where you need to go You
haven't shown any use case that would require a variable.

Of course loading the original data is going to take time/space (and
building the key is going to take some more) but do you really need to
save any variables containg large numbers of nodes?
