Is it possible to do XML signatures using the AES algorithm instead of
RSA?

I don't think this makes a lot of sense. Are you saying to do something like AES-encrypt the SHA-1 message digest? That would be bad -- it would mean that every signed document is a adding to known-plaintext attacks against the AES key, for example.


Perhaps you want to use HMAC?
