Yes, of course. Some of the great strength of 4Suite is 4RDF and DbDom
(and of course 4SuiteServer). And of course, writing XSLT extensions in
python. 

However, having used Xalan as a simple command line XSLT engine, when
it comes to pure speed, things are just not the same. Xalan is several
orders of magnitude faster, so I guess that for a number of applications,
having the choice is a Good Thing.
