I've installed Qubes-OS 4.0.1 and it's XFCE desktop environment but I

is available. I was wondering, is there a way I can use my preferred
desktop environment? Or, I have to wait for GNOME until migration is not
fully completed because it seems currently there is no support for KDE.

KDE does have support AFAIK, although its no long the default. If you
can get used to the blank-space network icon, then I recommend KDE as
there are many pluses.
I don't believe Qubes is actually going to migrate to Gnome. There was
an aborted attempt and Gnome 3's paradigm (tablet touch UI, melded
WM/app widgets) doesn't seem compatible with Qubes' concept.

suppose one follow these instructions but does *not want to use sddm
nor change any windows management settings
on reboot
one is logged into XFCE then, in dom0 can type
startkde
or startkde --replace xfce ?
but this seems to result in 2 taskbars running
what would be the way to choose the DM on login or to startkde and
close xfce or is that possible ?
