Let's say we have this method with annotation:
@Cached(key="search" + id)
public static List<String> search(String id) {
//...
}
I want to pass parameter "id" to the @Cached annotation's key.
Is it possible to do this in java?

No. It is not possible.
Attributes of Java Annotations must be constant expressions as defined by the Java Language Specification (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se7/html/jls-15.html#jls-15.28)
I think your question has been answered before: Get rid of "The value for annotation attribute must be a constant expression" message
