Sure. Generate several xsl-fo documents (you can do it in xslt 1.0 using 
extension elements, see your xslt processor tfm) and process them by fop one 
by one.

this is uncalled for.
For him this is a serious question, your answer isn't.
The "solution" should not even be sought in FOP but in XSLT.

Just don't answer questions like this if they irritate you.

Please go back to the FOP website, read a bit about FOP and then come back 
and ask a serious question....

http://xml.apache.org/fop/

FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) is the world's first print formatter 
driven by XSL formatting objects and the world's first output independent 
formatter. It is a Java application that reads a formatting object tree and 
then renders the resulting pages to a specified output. Output formats 
currently supported are PDF, PCL, PS, SVG, XML (area tree representation), 
Print, AWT, MIF and TXT. The primary output target is PDF.

The latest version of Fop is 0.20.4 and it supports the XSL-FO Version 1.0 
W3C Recommendation. You can download Fop including a precompiled version, 
the source code and many example files to get you started. Pointers to 
introductions into xsl:fo can be found in the resources section. Please be 
aware, that Fop is at the moment not a full implementation of the basic 
conformance level of the xsl:fo standard. You can find a list of supported 
flow objects and properties in the section Features and in section 
Limitations in what way this support is limited.
FOP is part of Apache's XML project. The homepage of FOP is 
http://xml.apache.org/fop. Here you can find information about using and 
developing with FOP.
