I don't think so. In fact, I think there's too much differences between
i386 and xen kernel headers to be able to share LKMs between i386 and Xen.

The lkms need to be built with includes from arch/xen. But I don't know
what needs to be changed in the Makefile for that. Maybe you need to
change MACHINE and/or MACHINE_ARCH make variables
