hi,

yes it's possible.

in transaction we21 you can define 2 different type of port who generate an xml from a IDoc.

The exchange of IDocs using XML files at the operating system level. The names of XML tags refer to the IDoc record types or IDoc segments

check this link and go to xml - e commerce
