Yes we can! Here comes:

\startxmlsetups mytest
\xmlsetsetup{main}{document|p}{*}
\stopxmlsetups

\xmlregistersetup{mytest}

\startxmlsetups document
\xmlflush{#1}\par
\stopxmlsetups

\startxmlsetups p
\xmlflush{#1}\par
\stopxmlsetups
\defineXMLentity[textbar]{\textbar}
\defineXMLentity[shorta]{\buildtextaccent\textbreve a}

\startbuffer[test]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<document>
<p>Hello &textbar; &shorta; World!</p>
</document>
\stopbuffer

\starttext
\xmlprocessbuffer{main}{test}{}
\stoptext
