It is possible to fork them now, but only limited to add or modify existing fields.
You cannot remove a field from XML.
You can eventually set it to hidden, but not the cleanest.

Limitations are for the others XML files (config, layout, ...)

I think there may be a bug when you have a radio type field in a forked xml.

The preprocessForm method is calling the $form->load method which is removing the radio fields.

Here is the calling code: (in classes/model/item.php)
$baseFolder = JPATH_COMPONENT .DS. 'fork' .DS. 'models' .DS. 'forms';
$formFile = $baseFolder .DS. $this->view_item .'.xml';
if (file_exists($formFile))
{
$xml = simplexml_load_file($formFile);
$form->load($xml, true);
}

I got it.

This is a problem in Joomla.

You must hack a line:
libraries/joomla/forms/forms.php - LINE 723
$olddom = dom_import_simplexml($current);
$loadeddom = dom_import_simplexml($field);

//HERE FIX JOOMLA ISSUE
//-$addeddom = $olddom->ownerDocument->importNode($loadeddom);
$addeddom = $olddom->ownerDocument->importNode($loadeddom, true);
//
$olddom->parentNode->replaceChild($addeddom, $olddom);
$loadeddom->parentNode->removeChild($loadeddom);
