I don't think that's possible. You can make heavy use of aliasing, of 
course, to get somewhat prettier URLs but the apache (et al) stuff is 
being done with mod_rewrite (or equiv), and that isn't possible with 
Xitami AFAIK. One option would be to just use the 404 page for 
everything (don't laugh!), handling your own internal redirects, but if 
I am not mistaken Xitami doesn't allow scripting in error pages (my 
memory is a little sketchy here but I'm pretty sure I have tried such 
things).
