@lcdsantos,

What XeTeX can and cannot do is independent of what OOo can and cannot do. They
are two different programs, each with different capabilities, written for
different purposes. (OOo is a productivity suite that includes a word processor,
and XeTeX is a high quality page description language that can use OpenType fonts.)

So the answer to your questions, "No."

Installing XeTeX allows you to use OpenType fonts *only if they are already
present on your system* and only if you also have TeX/LaTeX installed. OOo
cannot use OpenType fonts currently, regardless of which fonts are installed.
