This may be possible to specify in XSL for implementation through FO, 
but you should probably ask the question in the XSL Mailing List (see 
http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/index.html) and check the XSL 
FAQ first (http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/index.html).

Personally, I prefer to use XSLT to transform to LaTeX, which already 
has facilities for programming this kind of trick, and generate PDF that 
way, rather than have to reinvent several dozen wheels in XSL:FO, but 
I'm notorious that way :-)
