I think that by default you cannot, as it should be against the MVC pattern.

You are better off passing the variable to your view, but without using a global (or some sort of).

It seems you can get the desired effect using the following code:

$this->getResponse()->setSlot('title', 'insert your title here');

And then use this in your layout file:

<title><?php echo get_slot('title') ?></title>
