Linux does, but I don't think Xen does.

You probably do have a serial port on your motherboard, it's just a 
header on the MB instead of an external connector.  The external 
connector has fallen out of favor because it's big and not much uses it 
anymore, but I have yet to see a commercially available x86 desktop 
motherboard that doesn't have at least one 16655A UART hooked up to an 
internal header so that a serial console can be used for debugging.
If you're using an Intel system and have a CPU which supports vPro, you 
may also be able to get a network console via AMT, although some 
BIOS/UEFI configuration UI's don't properly support console redirection. 
 Taking that approach may also require some extra command-line 
parameters for Xen, but I'm not 100% certain about that.
