Any one know if the new XDS 9 barrel can be interchanged with the 45?

No.

You'd have to change everything that comes into contact with the cartridge.
Mag
Barrel
Extractor
Ejector
Breechface (hint, those don't swap out easily)

You could possibly use the frame from an XD(S)45 - maybe, possibly ... ... probably not
 
9mm in a .40 slide works well enough commercial barrel makers build "conversion" barrels to accommodate. But the 9mm in a .45 slide is just too sloppy for both the extractor and ejector to function.
 
By the time you changed the ejector, slide (because the breech face), barrel and bought magazines, I'm gonna say you are not far financially from purchasing the 9mm xds.
