No, variables in XSLT aren't variable.

You can pass a parameter to a named template that returns a result tree
fragment consisting of a text node that is the number plus 1. Assign it
to a variable and then take the number($foo).

See the variable section of the FAQ,
http://freespace.virgin.net/b.pawson/xsl/N8090.html
questions 14-19.
