No. You can also use <xsl:with-param> within <xsl:apply-templates>, e.g.

  <xsl:apply-templates select="*">
      <xsl:with-param name="foo" select="'bar'" as="xs:string"/>
  </xsl:apply-templates>

But that is needed very seldom, I think. It's more often used in named
templates, e.g.

  <xsl:call-template name="baz">
      <xsl:with-param name="foo" select="'bar'" as="xs:string"/>
  </xsl:call-template>
