Yes I think you could devise a scheme to do this although I
can't quite think how you would do it with just xxcopy commands.
Because it's simpler, what I would do is use a FOR/F loop to step
through each parent directory then use /RSY/BS to remove files
in the parent which have an identical counterpart in the child dir.

for /f "tokens=*" %%a in ('dir /b/ad d:\') do (
xxcopy "d:\%%a\" "d:\%%a\dirarchive\" /rsy/bs/ed/pd0)
