I would not think so. I know of no support today.  
How would your core get an XM signal?  
The decoding of the XM signal would be required as well.

I read quickly. But a reasonable brief of how it works. I didn’t know.

I understand.

But like Apple or Spotify there is no API or support to interact with their closed system. Tidal and Qobuz worked with Roon to make integration happen.

It’s a nice wish, but is it Roon worthy!  
this would open the doors to so many services being integrated. (actually would like to see XM and Apple).

I know I use Sirius via the BlueSound app and it sounds great. I’m sure Roon - and more importantly Sirius - would need to be willing to integrate. I would love for both parties to make this happen though. Would make the whole experience so much better, and easier, to just work through one service/app/etc.
