Technically - I think you may, just like you can add SFE repos:

# pkg publisher
PUBLISHER                             TYPE     STATUS   URI
openindiana.org                       origin   online
http://pkg.openindiana.org/dev/
openindiana.org                       mirror   online   http://n54l:10002/
opensolaris.org                       origin   online
http://pkg.openindiana.org/legacy/
sfe                                   origin   online
http://pkg.openindiana.org/sfe/
sfe-encumbered                        origin   online
http://pkg.openindiana.org/sfe-encumbered/


One repository is your system default (see "pkg set-publisher
--search-first") in case you specify incomplete package-version
identifiers and more than one repo contains a hit to your pattern.

*Probably*, adding the XStreamOS repo and installing the packages
with complete resource ID's should not break your OS. But these
packages may pull dependencies which may conflict (i.e. same libs),
so you should rather test this in a new BE and/or a test local zone
first.

HTH,
