One way to do this with Saxon (that I recently found out thanks
to a reply from Michael) is:

  <xsl:output saxon:next-in-chain="a.xsl" name="a"/>
  <xsl:output saxon:next-in-chain="b.xsl" name="b"/>

  <xsl:result-document href="output.xml" format="{if (condition) then 'a' else
'b'}">
    <xsl:sequence
select="elements_to_be_processed_further_by_either_a_or_b"/>
    </xsl:result-document>
