Subject   st: predetermined variables in xtabond- without considering contemporaneous coefficient

I would like to ask if xtabond allow us to declare a predetermined variable without asking stata to estimate its contemporaneous coefficient (just in case some endogenity problem exist or remains). For example:
 
xtabond y l(1/2).x pre(w,lag(2,1)) lags(2).... could yield us to the following simplified screen: (x: exogenous covariates)
 
Y
    LD
    L2D
X=>We ask stata not to estimate D1, just LD & L2D using "l(1/2).x"
    LD
    L2D
W=>Can we include the predetermined W variable without having to estimate D1? 
    D1=***
    LD
    L2D
 
Thanks
 
Marco Shiva
