You can't use the navigation framework out of the box for this purpose.

There are two options:

1. use your own navigation.xmap in your publication
2. use custom pipelines

In either case, I'd recommend the following strategy:

1. generate the site tree
2. apply an XSLT to add CInclude statements for meta data
3. apply the CInclude transformer
4. apply a presentation XSLT

The steps 2.-4. could be replaced by a transformer for better performance,
if you're familiar with Java and developing Cocoon components.
