LIB(XXXXXX) PARMS(&TM)
The PARMS(&TM) will not be substituted as it is not JCL code, but is instream data
Have you tried with the value for &TM coded as it should be ? i.e. 04 |

yes, '04' works well.
but &TM stands for current month, it will be changed next month.
so i can't put '04' there directly. |

That is what you can do directly. What you cannot is substitute for &TM in sinstream data.
You could implement a step to be executed before the step you posted that would create the "instream data" and write it to a dasd file with the month resolved. This: "//SYSTSIN DD * " would become "//SYSTSIN DD DSN=". The data written to the dasd file would have the specific month, not the symbolic parameter &TM. |

You could set up 12 members in a PDS, one for each month, and use
//SYSIN DD DSN=Dataset Name(XX&TM.),DISP=SHR |
