How to Parameter Loaded Profiles

This is a countertop and I am trying to have the edge finish to be adjustable by swapping out profiles. I do not see a button next to the profile drop-down where I can link it to a profile family parameter. The adjustable edge is created using a generic model void and a loaded profile. 

 

1. Can loaded profiles be mapped to a parameter?

2. Can loaded profiles have their parameter dimensions mapped to the family parameter such as "counter thickness"?

 

The goal here is to make parametric counter (variable thickness) with adjustable edge profiles.

If the profiles are similar, with a different dimension to match the thickness of the counter, then you be can use a void sweep with pick 3d path to cut the counter.
