Sorry, that's not supported right now and not so easy to hack on.
Why do you think it would help with SEO? A page title belongs into the page's title (hence the name) and there it's most effective for SEO.

Actually I had a case where I needed the page title in another template which is a similar problem.
For Geeklog 2.0.0 it wouldn't be a real problem if you was using a 2.0.0 theme since the page is generated by one function now (COM_createHTMLDocument).
For Geeklog 1.8.X you could create a really ugly hack. In COM_SiteHeader when the page title is created you can pass it to a global variable.
Then in COM_SiteFooter you can then write your global variable that contains the page title to the template variable.

Thank U, I'll try.
But it's no problem if I'll upgrade to 2.0, yea?

You would still have to hack 2.0 but it would only be a few lines.
