d <- data.frame(
  Sepal_Length=c(5.8,5.7),
  Sepal_Width=c(4.0,4.4),

# %in_block% notation
qc(
  AREA_COL = Sepal_area,
  LENGTH_COL = Sepal_Length,
  WIDTH_COL = Sepal_Width
) %in_block% {
  d %.>%
    transform(., AREA_COL = LENGTH_COL * WIDTH_COL)
}
#>   Sepal_Length Sepal_Width Species Sepal_area
#> 1          5.8         4.0  setosa      23.20
#> 2          5.7         4.4  setosa      25.08

# Note: in packages can make assignment such as:
#   AREA_COL <- LENGTH_COL <- WIDTH_COL <- NULL
# prior to code so targets don't look like unbound names.
