Is it possible to define some parameter in a user profile that is evaluated when a rule is being performed?

Workflow_ng is an advised way to perform user notifications by email on certain events. But users differ in their preferences if they want to be notified by email or not (or use rss instead). For example in privatemsg-module it es adviced now to create a workflow_ng rule for sending notifications. In previous privatemsg-version, when it was not based on workflow_ng, users could decide if they want to get an email on a received privatemessage. IMO this is not just a matter of privatemsg, because other notification would also profit of site-user configurable actions.

How can this be achieved with workflow_ng?

you can implement settings as you want - e.g. you can use CCK + nodeprofile, then load the nodeprofile for the user and check it's settings. then you know what to do. Or it should also work to use the core profile module for settings and check its tokens.
