Hello! I was wondering if it's possible to use transclusion in order to grab the contents of a page and pass its contents in as parameters to a template?

For example, say I have a page "Transcluded" which simply contains the following: | a | b | c

And a template (Template:test) which looks like this:

I was hoping to be able to do this:

But it doesn't seem to work, and the page that contains the above line would display the following:

..rather than calling Template:test with parameters a, b, c, as it would if you wrote the following on the page:

I suppose another way to phrase this would be: is there a way to force the page transclusion to occur before template transclusion?

My assumption is that the Wiki first tries to transclude the template, looking for the following (which results in nothing): Template:test and then does the page transclusion, replacing: with: | a | b | c

If this question doesn't make sense, please let me know and I'll try to better explain it. :(
