I would write that on three lines anyway, properly indented:

  [ somefunc(mn,day,wd,name)
    for (then, name) in mylist
    let (_,mn,dy,_,_,_,wd,_,_) = localtime(then) ]

It could be made to use existing keywords:

  [ somefunc(mn,day,wd,name)
    for (then, name) in mylist
    with localtime(then) as (_,mn,dy,_,_,_,wd,_,_) ]
