You currently use XSLT to generate HTML from your XML, correct? You could write another XSLT file that generates BXML (for example, one that produces a TablePane containing Labels vs. an HTML <table> containing text).
How does the server know which XSLT file to apply to your XML? Is it based on a User-Agent header or something like that? If so, you can just execute a GetQuery and set this header to some known value for your Pivot app. If you set the query's serializer to an instance of BXMLSerializer, it will return your table pane when it has finished executing. You can then set this return value as the view in your scroll pane. Note that you can also include script code in your generated BXML if you need to apply any logic to the content (similar to including JavaScript in your generated HTML).
