From what looks like their home page
(http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/)
In addition to Linux, members of Xen's user community have contributed
or are working on ports to other operating systems such as NetBSD
(Christian Limpach), FreeBSD (Kip Macy) and Plan 9 (Ron Minnich). A port
of Windows XP was developed for an earlier version of Xen, but is not
available for release due to licence restrictions.
Looks like someone is working on a port of it. Try contacting Kip Macy
to see what the status is.
HTH,
Micah
