That can be done with the Tunnel Encapsulation attribute. Look at, for example, at draft-previdi-idr-segment-routing-te-policy (though I think that document still needs quite a bit of work).

3107bis fixes a number of problems in 3107, and it also specifies how to use the "multiple labels" feature without tickling known bugs in existing deployments. One could argue about whether this is the best tool for various segment routing applications, but that's outside the scope of the draft. And there are use cases that have nothing to do with segment routing; see, e.g., the discussion of context labels in section 4.
