iXAFS originally started out as a wrapper to launch the individual programs. At that time, it was a simple matter to replace any of the individual programs. Ken McIvor has improved iXAFS so that it now builds universal projects but has perl code embedded. This makes it more difficult to update.
That said there is a directory structure within iXAFS and I would guess that replacing the individual programs would work. I make no guarantees though as I am not sure of all the changes that Ken has made since I initially wrote the cocoa wrapper.

I am running iXAFS 2.1 b1, is there any way to update the Athena/Artemis versions, or would I have to an source install?
That is actually a question I need to know the answer to as well. In fact, our group's post-doc has the same question, so I plan to look into it this week. (Since I did not make the iXAFS package, I am not 100% clear on how it works -- which is actually true of most things on a Mac!)
I believe the answer is yes, but I'll let you know what I know more.
