Did you try it? Presuming your file names look something like this:
 >>> date = 'xx051015.jpg'

Taking a slice of a string gives another string:
 >>> date[2:4]
'05'

Which is exactly the same as turning the string into a list (of strings) and concatenating:
 >>> datel=list(date)
 >>> datel[2] + datel[3]
'05'
