I remember looking for the answer to the same question when exporting a 
FrameMaker document into individual XML topic files along with an XML 
map hierarchy of said topics.  And I came up with the same answer: 
xalan:write doesn't appear to let you specify the doctype.

Needless to say, there are plenty of solutions in the XSLT 2.0 world, 
but that's going to require an extra, manual, step after saving the 
document as a single XML |ber-document.  My experience with FrameMaker 
is that unless you use some paid-for plugin or the FDK you are stuck 
with it.
