No. but the following is:
<XXX>
    <aaa/>
    <aaa/>
    <bbb/>
    <bbb/>
<XXX>

To achieve the effect you want, try (using 4/7 draft):
<xsd:element name="XXX">
    <xsd:complexType>
        <group  ref="aORb" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="2"/>
    </xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>

<group  name="aORb">    <!-- allow only <aaa> or <bbb> or both -->
    <sequence>
        <xsd:element name="aaa" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
        <xsd:element name="bbb" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
    </sequence>
</group>
