It is possible to write Xpress Tags out of an XSL transform, use
plain-text for the output method and escape your instructions thus:

<xsl:text>@TextHead;</xsl:text>

You would do well to have well defined paragraph and text styles,
obviously.  YMMV, but the last I saw of Avenue, admittedly two years ago
now, it really stank.  You can flow into some pretty complex (for Quark)
tabular layout but you get hung up on mapping particular flows to discrete
Quark stories without a commercial Xtension.  I apologize, but the name
escapes me.  Xdata?  It allowed you to specify that mapping with
markup-like labels.

I've an old post to cocoon-users which has an example in it.

A while ago Quark's Avenue was supposed to do this. I don't know where 
they are with it now, though.
