Isn't it possible to have the expected data in fixed column?
The alternative is to custom property one per response XML element and the desired colum data be set to the custom property before. But it may not be feasible to do that as XPath assertion would run as soon as the response is received. Otherwise, script assertion is flexible if you can do that.
Edit:
It is possible with custom property if you know for particular condition even if the expected data column changes, do the assignment of expected data to custom property as suggested earlier. And use custom property as expected data insted of data source field. Then have actual test step after the assignment. So that XPath assertion can be run without any issues.

Thanks nmrao for your suggestion
I have never used custom property earlier, however I am able to achieve it using script assertion and for now it seems that it running well with my huge data.
Still if i run into any scenario..will surely try the custom property approach.
Thanks for your help.
Yes, for this dynamic assertion use the script assertion, as you can write code to achieve every condition.
