Using a single feature code token for multiple anchors

Glyphs
1

I’m trying to do something similar but am not sure if supported:
Is there a way to reference “self” in the anchor?

I’m hoping I can do something like:

pos base @myGroup <anchor ${self:anchors.bottom.x} ${SomeNumberValue}> mark @mark_bottom' @lettersFollowing;

EDIT: To clarify, I want to use the x already defined in bottom but in certain context set a fixed new y value. Ideally I could do this with a large group instead of needing an individual entry for each letter. I know I can also do this via context anchor within the glyphs as well but if the above is possible that would be much easier to manage.

No, this is not possible. To automate this, you could use a Python script to generate the code.
