No, comment nodes cannot have children, so they cannot contain a subtree.
(To put it another way, angle brackets inside a comment are not markup
representing elements and attributes, they are just text.)
In Saxon you can do
<xsl:comment>
<xsl:value-of select="saxon:serialize($subtree)"/>
</xsl:comment>
