Oh.  I didn't really realize that was still around.

No, you can't seem to do this in calendar.  I think you could in
KOrganizer, Evolution, ical, plan, remind, jpilot, gnome-pim, Emacs's
Calendar, and other things.  If you got really tricky, you might be
able to do it within the C preprocessor, since the calendar file is
processed through cpp.

If it's too tricky, you'd need to do programming... in Emacs, you can
use lisp expressions for the "date" of an item.  Most other calendar
programs won't let you do it.
