Yes it will work. To make it seemless, you want to run CoLinux as a 
service and automatically start samba on the CoLinux side, then you 
mount it like any other share. I currently access my reiserfs and xfs 
partitions this way under Windows.
You might to have compile your own CoLinux kernel to boot it from an XFS 
partition (I think the latest standard CoLinux kernel 2.6.8.1 loads XFS 
as a module), but it's not a big deal
