No. Your choices are to declare an element or attribute in a
specified namespace (the 'target namespace' of the schema document
containing the declaration), or to declare it in no namespace.
The latter option does allow you to 'repurpose' the declaration by
including it in various schema documents for various specified
namespaces, but it is never in more than one namespace at a time.
