You can use the WindowsFormsHost to add single Forms into an WPF application.
Windows forms are mainly based on a pixel, whereas WPF is not pixel-based, which allows the scalability of the UI part for the application. Windows forms support data binding in a limited way, whereas WPF is fully supported data binding. Windows forms are not used with different themes or skins.
So, the answer is no : you cannot add an XAML file in a WinForms project as is. You have to create a new System.
You'll want to use a WindowsFormsHost. Check this tutorial out (shows how to do WPF in WinForms and vice versa).
