Is there a way to declare my own variable inside of a spec file and refer to it as %{my_var} ?

Sure. You use %global or %define for that. See for example the fedora firefox.spec.

Define your variable at the beginning: %define my_var my_value and use it with %{my_var}.
According to rpm packaging guide - defining your own macros, %global can be used too.
