That can be, and is expressed in the HTML4 DTD with:
<!ELEMENT A - - (%inline;)* -(A)       -- anchor -->

Though, I don't beleive it can be expressed with an XML DTD.

Of course, schema's are also included within my use of DTD above when 
talking about XML versions (though I was originally only referring to 
SGML), so the above would be something that can be checked by a machine.
