You can't do that with the current upgrade tools.
X-Cart removed the ability to do a post-upgrade database only "final" upgrade.

It is CRUCIAL for a live store to upgrade in a dev environment, and then after all testing is completed, run a final database patch on the live (clone) database.

Unless X-Cart permits this, nobody actually making money will be interested in upgrading.
