Re:  Including markup in a replace string
Yes if you can use analyze-string:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="2.0">
  <xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8"/>
  <xsl:template match="/">
    <body>
      <xsl:analyze-string select="'my text has {{ many curly }} braces
lots more {{ than }}  I expected'" regex="{'\{\{|\}\}'}">
        <xsl:matching-substring>
          <span class="noProcess">
            <xsl:value-of select="."/>
          </span>
        </xsl:matching-substring>
        <xsl:non-matching-substring>
          <xsl:value-of select="."/>
        </xsl:non-matching-substring>
      </xsl:analyze-string>
    </body>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

outputs


<body>my text has
  <span class="noProcess">{{</span> many curly
  <span class="noProcess">}}</span> braces lots more
  <span class="noProcess">{{</span> than
  <span class="noProcess">}}</span> I expected
</body>
