Not easily.  xplt supports a limited number of markers ('*', 'x', 'o', 
'+', '.')  are the ones I remember.  (the d and t in your example are 
being ignored)

You can of course draw whatever size circles you like using raw plot 
commands.

I just noticed that the raw xplt.plg command aslso accepts the msize 
argument which seems to be able to make the dots bigger (but not really 
smaller) --- you need the current cvs to use the new msize keyword.  To 
compile on Unix make sure and comment out the addition of chaco (I guess 
it's not compiling right now on Unix) in the setup.py file.
