I don't think there is any possibility in RELAX NG directly. However, you can
move your above definitions into a separate file (for example "mylocale.ent")
and refer to it into the internal subset of the DTD like this:

<!DOCTYPE article
[
<!ENTITY % Italian "INCLUDE">
<!ENTITY % mylocale SYSTEM "mylocale.ent">
%mylocale;
]>
<article ... xml:lang="&language;">
...
</article>

I couldn't test it so there might be other issues.

Best wishes,
Tom
