No. Guessing at syntax isn't a good way of finding out what the spec allows
- and this particular guess is miles off.

Attribute sets are only useful if you know statically which attributes you
want to add. Usually you're likely to know statically what the attribute
values will be as well - though the value can in fact depend on the context
node or on global variables.
