(
select startDate, endDate,
       decode (:pValue,1,
               select sysdate from dual,
               select activation_date from account where AcNo = 1234) as calcdate
)
where calcdate between startDate and endDate;

Answer 2

Se puede seleccionar la fecha de la doble y unirse a los resultados:

select * 
from   <<your table with startDate and endDate columns>> -- Since you ommited the main "from" clause from your statement
,      (
         select decode( :pValue
                      , 1, sysdate
                      , ( select activation_date from account where AcNo = 1234 )
                      ) as calDate
         from   dual
       ) c
where  c.calDate between startDate and endDate
... -- any other conditions you may need
