I would like to generate random numbers inside xsl, is
there a way to do this.

A variety of random-generation functionality is implemented in FXSL.

As a demo one may be interested in performing the following transformations:

test-random.xsl

and

testRandomList.xsl

There is a good description of the implementation and its main ideas
in this article:
