So what I'm asking is "Is it possible to create a xen VM that has two virtual ethernet interfaces on a host that has only one real NIC"?
IMHO you can create an empty* bridge interface on a virtualization host.
*By 'empty' I mean no IP address and no real interfaces bridged.
+1 This is the way I am configuring bridges and taps for my virtual network.
Yep, creating an "empty" bridge with no physical ethernet interfaces as uplinks is normal and straight forward.
Each vif (vnic) of the Xen VM is attached to a bridge. And it doesn't matter if it's a bridge with or without uplinks.
