Really? Never?

Yes, never! For one, a conforming HTML 5 (not XHTML 5) document requires the DOCTYPE to be <!DOCTYPE html> and that is not well-formed XML.

There are many HTML 4 documents that are well-formed XML documents? Are these not legal HTML 5 documents?

No. That's like asking is a valid HTML 3.2 document a conforming HTML 4.01 document!? No, it's not!
