XML is a plain text format so you can open it with any text editor (gedit/ mcedit/vim/pico/emacs...). But docx's XML is raw format, meaning that you barely can get access to some pieces of the doc text but it will be completely unstructured and meaningless. You better try to open the file with an updated verion of Libre Office or ask someone to open it for you and then he/she can return it to you in a more open and standard format.
