No, you're not. They are not in scope
<https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3/reference/lang_scope.html> there.
Your simpler options include:
1. Passing the values as parameters of foo::install, or
2. merging the foo::install defined type into the foo defined type
(provided foo::install is declared only in foo).
On the other hand, the pattern you are using looks like it might be one
better served by classes. This is the case if it doesn't make sense for
any node to have two different Foo or Foo::Install resources. In that
event, if you change at least foo to a class then foo::install can refer to
its variables by their qualified names: $::foo::xx (or usually $foo::xx
works too), etc..
