I’m not sure I understand, but you can use getTime() on your Date objec to insert it into the XML file as milliseconds, and if you need to convert it back into a JavaScript object you can parse it directly.

function putInXmlFile(d) {
  writeToXML(d.getTime());
}

function getFromXmlFile() {
  var date = new Date(getFromXML());
}

It works because the JavaScript Date object can parse from the milliseconds from the epoch (which is returned by getTime).
