Nope. =(

There is only one "Select Range" destination available, so only one 
source can take it. You have Velocity taking it. (See the modulation 
matrix, Vel->Sample Select. "Sample Select" refers to Select Range" 
in the Groups or Zones.)

To have a MW XFade, you'd have to have the MW address the "Select 
Range" parameter.

Now, IF you had just one velocity, then here's how you would do it.

Take 4 Groups that set Select Range as follows:

0-0, 42-42, 84-84, 127-127

Then set XFade in the front panel (it's a global parameter) to 
"+-42", and set a Modulation to Ctl 1, Dest as Sample Select, and 
amount to 100%. There's you XFade.

Looking backwards, you can see that there's no room for velocity 
splits now, since the MW took that over.

That's probably my #1 or #2 shortcoming, and the most silly 
limitation, of the EXS24.
