Using a Workflow Variable to set Mapping Parameter

Is it possible to use a Workflow variable to set the value of a Mapping parameter for a session within that workflow? We have one set of mappings with multiple sessions for each mapping...each session points to a different source system (same source system application, just different instances/companies). We are setting the 'COMPANY_NAME' field value using Mapping parameters, so that each session reads a parameter file to get its appropriate value.

So, we have about 20 mappings for one source system application, and we have three instances of this application. Let's use just one mapping as an example, Mapping A. Mapping A has three sessions (A1, A2, and A3), with each session points to a different instance of source system X (same application, just different companies). We have a separate Worklet for each company. The 'COMPANY_NAME' value is currently being populated using a Mapping Parameter. This means that we have one entry for each session (total of 60, 20 mappings by 3 source instances).

Can we use a Workflow or Worklet variable/parameter to set the 'COMPANY_NAME' in each session since the worklet groups all sessions of a single source system?
