Not sure what you mean, but if you want you can always place a nodeset in a
variable using

<xsl:variable name="testa" select="NODE"/>
<xsl:variable name="testb" select="NODE"/>

the above variables contain the same nodeset, assumming if there was a NODE
element

<xsl:variable name="testa" select="document('a.xml')"/>
<xsl:variable name="testb" select="document('b.xml')"/>

the above illustrates 2 nodesets, using the document command as an example.

sometimes, you will have to be a little bit careful, because if you are
getting a result tree fragment and wanting to do further processing, you
have to convert it back to a nodeset using the XSLT processor native nodeset
command ( which is always a 3rd party cmd  ).

good luck, doing whatever you are trying to do !
