And this would not:
<html>
<head><head>
<body>
<div>

The first thing that happens to an xsl stylesheet is that it is parsed by
an XML parser that knows _nothing_ about xslt so clearly, yes, you can not
put the above fragment in _any_ XML element. In particular you can't put
it in xsl:variable If you do you get an _XML_ parse error and XSLT won't
even start.
XSLT never manipulates tags so it never makes sense to process a start
tag and not the end tag. Think in terms of a node tree not of the markup
used to express that tree in a linear document: you can't have half a
node.
