Short answer: no. Even instrumenting the Java code internally is virtually impossible: the more you try to probe timings at fine granularity, the more you distort things like hot-spot optimization and CPU caching that have a profound effect on performance. Heisenberg comes to mind... Remember also that execution of these constructs isn't going to be sequential. If the processor actually needs to do a run-time check that the results of random:sequence are all xs:doubles, then it's probably going to check each item as it's produced, rather than starting the checking when all the items in the sequence are available. There's also lazy evaluation to consider: there's a good chance that the processor will be evaluating the variable $hiddennodes as a "side-effect" of one of the two expressions that references it.
