Does CFML support variable variables?

In PHP you can define a variable and then define another variable to
point to it, e.g.:

$i = 123;
$j = $$i;
print $j;
// output is "123"

Is there something similar in CFML?  At a cursory glance of the books I
have looks like it isn't possible.

In my situation I've got variables with pretty long names, e.g.
#Application.language.circuitname.stringname# and would like to be able
to reference it by a shorter method, e.g. circuitlang.stringname, while
still retaining the Application scope.

Thanks.
