No.

You can declare a new variable like this:
<xsl:param name="color">123456</xsl:param>
<xsl:variable name="color2">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="ancestor::top_bar">ffffff</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="ancestor::bottom_bar">000000</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise><xsl:value-of select="$color" /></xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
Now $color2 contains the value you want.
Hope that helps,
Oliver
