system variables inside a user variable?

[Brian.Darold at sage.com]

Is it possible to put building blocks inside a user variable? Ideally I'd
like to create a variable named CurrentYear that contains only the <$year>
building block. For reasons unknown, I'd like to do this without modifying
or using the existing current date, modification date, or creation date
variables.
 
Thank you for your time.
