You can't, once the value of a variable is declared in a specific scope
it is fixed, depending on what you want to do, you can use a recursive
call to the same template:

<xsl:template name="whatever">
	<xsl:with-param name="variable" />
	do some stuff which may use $variable
	<xsl:call-template name="whatever">
		<xsl:with-param name="variable">
			<xsl:value-of select="whatever it has changed to" />
		</xsl:with-param>
	</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>

if you are wanting to mimic  a loop put a conditional branch before the
call-template.
