yes, this is possible. quite a number of pages get 'shared' that way,
e.g. the console and xenstore mfns. see e.g. the definition of the
start_info struct in the xen headers and see e.g. the domain builder
code (tools/libxc/xc_(linux|*)_build.c) on how this is set up from dom0.
you might just need to add a few lines to get what you want.
