If you are using xslt 3, you can convert the input to XSLT e.g. in a
variable and then use fn:transform() with that variable as the
stylesheet node.
<xsl:template match="substring">
<xsl:text>{ substring($input, start, length) }</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
(assuming you have xsl:expand-text="yes" on the stylesheet node).
Your use of xsl:value-of suggests you might be using XSLT 1, in which
either move to XSLT 3 :) or investigate XProc.
