yes, since the property you apply it to is actually
effect("Paint").stroke("Clone 1").transform.position
you can simply write

value + 75

I have this line on my clone position and keep duplicating the stroke. It would be nice to have the name of the stroke change for me each time. Something like "this" in certain contexts in scripting.

effect("Paint").stroke("Clone 1").transform.position+75
