No. Server variables can not be impacted from the front end. Only session variables.

Hi

Thanks for the answer, then can we pass dashboard value to non system session variable  as input parameter, this is to say value of session variable is dynamic which is derived from sql, can this sql return value be based on dashboard parameter.

Thanks

Yes. You do that using request variables which overwrite session variables.
