Yes, but you have to specify the binding in the pointer:

<xi:include
href="test.xml"
xpointer="xmlns(db=http://docbook.org/ns/docbook)
          xpath(//*[@xml:id = 'test']/*[not(self::db:title)])"/>

If that doesn't work, uhm, let me know.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
