No. Remember the XO-1 is only two potentiometers for the low pass section and two capacitors of choice for cutting off the lows from the high pass section.
I have a stereo amp behind each MG 3.6, feed by an active crossover.

Thanks. Does the XO-1 separate line-in signal into Bass and MidTr? If yes, that should suffice to amplify and send directly to appropriate terminals on each speaker. Please explain like I am 5. Lol.

No, it does not. What model of Magnepan are you using?
Here a few pictures of the XO-1:
If you solder in a suitable capacitor it will replace the speaker level crossover for the high pass section. The potentiometers in there will allow you to set the level on the low pass section, which still require the speaker level crossover.
With the MG 3.6, the XO-1 is only replacing the yellow capacitors in the outboard crossover. You will still need the rest of the components.
