The context node is in the input tree where you can't create any nodes 
at all as the XSLT stylesheet creates all new nodes in the result tree.

It is not clear what the problem is, provide a minimal XML input, show 
us the relevant part of the stylesheet and we might be able to tell you 
more.
As already said, the input tree with context nodes is completely 
different from the result tree the XSLT stylesheet creates.
Then in the XSLT stylesheet you can of course call other templates with 
xsl:call-template, you can access any node with absolute XPath if 
needed, you can access any node relative to the content node.
