Yes, actually -- you could use "defadvice" (manual section 2.5).

Someday, Jess will support RuleML -- this is one of the major pieces
of work planned for Jess 7.0. But right now, no. One of the neatest
things about XML is XSLT -- the pattern language that lets you
transform one form of XML into another. If you use your own format
now, and eventually want to transform it into RuleML, it will be
possible to write an XSLT stylesheet to do the conversion. Therefore,
there's not much danger associated with using your own format.
