Henry, 
        Yes, it can be done, but can only be reconfigured via the Display
Configurator as far as I can tell.  To configure one, go to the Display
Builder and then:
Select "File"
Select "New Display"
Select "File"
Select "Import" or "Import and Configure"  depending on your preference
Select "Standard Template"
Select "File"
In Choice Window, Select "XYplots/"
In Choice Window, Select "Full_X_Y" (gives you X_Y with all pertinent
buttons)
Select "IMPORT" button in bottom left of window
Drop the imported trend on the display
Select "File"
Select "Configure Display"
Save the Display to your new filename
Load the new file into the configurator
Select "Display"
Select "Full_X_Y"
Configure "Plot Area", "X variable", and "Y variable" as desired.
Select "File"
Select "Install"
Go to DM and View XY graphic 
Select "GO" button to start the plot

Data from files can also be read into the XY plot. (Location of data files
must be configured in Display Configurator)
