Is it possible to use a dynamic variable based on slicer selections from a field parameter in slicer

Is it possible to use a dynamic variable based on slicer selections from a field parameter in slicer variable?

This variable based on the selection would be used filter a DAX measure for the  countrow dax function with a filter.

i.e.

 

Install Count =

    VAR _SELECTEDSOFTWARE = SELECTCOLUMNS(

            SUMMARIZE( 'Software Selection', 'Software Selection'[Software], 'Software Selection'[SoftwareTable] ),

            'Software Selection'[Software] )

    VAR _FilterCondition = CONCATENATEX ( _SELECTEDSOFTWARE, "'All Devices'["  & 'Software Selection'[Software] & "] = true()", " && " )

    VAR _results = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS( 'All Devices'), FILTER( 'All Devices' , _FilterCondition   ))

RETURN  

    _results


Below is the error I get!
