As you worded it, no, you can't do that, but you can do it with other ways:

Use javascript to set a cookie with the value (JS-based flash sniffing
is cake; there's a million scripts around), and then you can check the
value of the cookie with CF when you're rendering your forms.

If you need failover for cookie-less users, have your JS instead use
JS remoting to submit a simple GET request with the value to the
server, and then store it in the session scope for the user.
