I'm about 87% certain it is.

as long as it's the same age of hub yes they are, same hub body only ti bit is the freehub unless it's a really old one with a ti centre in the body

The ti glide does have the ti sleeve and the bonded flanges but my understanding was that the XC was the same hub but with a one piece shell. Andy, give it a try and let us know how it goes! One way to get a better idea is see if the Hope page has tech drawings for them both or you could search for spare parts and see what hubs they're listed for.

Will depend on whether it's a single or twin circlip Ti-glide, single circlips are compatible, twin circlips(quite rare now)have a specific axle (all assuming we're talking rear hubs).
