XSLT cannot access the destination tree in this way.

The only alternative to doing it by computation (ie reproducing the
steps in the computational calculation) is to perform those steps in
a recursive named template, where you can add n to m at each stage
and pass the result as a parameter to the next iteration (then output
it at the end).
