In Qt 5.6 (at least, probably earlier too), you can use Qt.font() to dynamically allocate a font object and refer to it elsewhere. So, this works:

property font myFont: Qt.font({
    family: fontfamily,
    bold: fontbold,
    italic: fontitalic,
    pixelSize: fontpixelsize
});

Text
{   
    color: fontcolor
    font: parent.myFont
}
