In order for the local variable to be expanded, you will need to replace the outer single quotes with double quotes.
Then, in order to pass the command substitution to the remote shell, you will need to quote (or escape) that.
Ex.
$ cmd='uname -r'
$ parallel-ssh -h hostsfile -i "echo $($cmd)"
[1] 22:38:52 [SUCCESS] vm
4.4.0-141-generic
[2] 22:38:52 [SUCCESS] localhost
4.15.0-43-generic
