It is only possible using dynamic sql.

I've changed your @date variables to varchar() because I believe you want the column names exactly as passed to the variables...

Declare @date1 varchar(10)
Declare @date2 varchar(10)
declare @date3 varchar(10)
declare @date4 varchar(10)
set @date1='8/1/2010'
set @date2='8/8/2010'
set @date3='8/15/2010'
set @date4='8/22/2010'

declare @sql varchar(1000)
set @sql = 'Select ''0'' as ['+@date1+'],''1'' as ['+@date2+'],''2'' as ['+@date3+']'
exec (@sql)

No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die.
