I assume you mean, "can you assign to them?" Not as such. But <c:set>
now lets you perform the assignment you're looking for. Instead of this:
> <c:set var="sessionScope.count" value="${sessionScope.count + 1}" />
you would write this:
<c:set
target="${sessionScope}"
property="count"
value="${sessionScope.count + 1}">
You're right that the 'dot notation' works only in ${...}.
