No parameter, but an easy customization.
Currently the HTML head stuff is output by
this template in html/docbook.xsl:
<xsl:template match="*" mode="process.root">
If you only want to modify this for articles,
you could add a template in mode "process.root"
to your html customization layer:
<xsl:template match="article" mode="process.root">
<xsl:apply-templates select="."/>
</xsl:template>
Then it will not output the <head><body> stuff, but
it will process everything in the document
as html.
