Yes.  Do two things:

1.  Place an empty toc element in your document:

<toc id="menu"/>

2.  And process the document using docbook.xsl
with these two parameters set:

rootid=menu
process.empty.source.toc=1

It will generate the toc content for the whole
document and output just that HTML.

Of course, the links in the toc will all look like
href="#foo", but I presume you have a way for
cocoon to map such references to a new
docbook process to generate the requested target.
