Yes, and I've no idea now whether the OP is JES2 or JES3.

Be aware, use of system symbols in JCL is supported in JES2 in z/OS 2.1, 
NOT JES3.

Yes, that would be a Release 13 thing. And yes my October residency will 
explore some of the value of this and, particularly, the 2.1 enhancements
- for job cloning.

I just discovered I can do such as:

    //SOURCE   PROC
    //C        EXEC  PGM=ASMA90
    //SYSIN     DD   *  For caller to override.
    //          DD   *  Main body of code
             MACRO
    TESTIT   CSECT
             ...
             END
    //         PEND

... and the caller can (optionally) provide an overriding prelude SYSIN 
containing various ACONTROL and SETC instructions to govern the rest of 
the processing.  Could be very useful for storing tailorable SYSIN in a 
PROCLIB.

Will be even better with symbol substitution in 2.1.
