Yes.

Only difference you need to note is what year rear wheel you are dealing with, 2010 models have a 3rd set of bearings and requires a matching 2010 axle. You can swap the 2010 wheel on an older bike, you just need the new axle.

The XB12X/XP wheels (magnesium color) are slightly heavier due to them being reinforced for off road, but they are identical otherwise.

About 1lb but you wouldn't know looking at them. I have a set of Amber wheels from a XB12S and a set of Uly wheels that I interchange onto my Uly. Also Uly wheels were heavier because it had a heavier GVWR. I believe 900+lbs where other XB are 800.
Bearings are the same tho so that's why Uly have more bearing issues.

All 3 Uly models had a 950lb GVWR, it had nothing to do with the wheels. All other XB models are 850lbs according to some quick searching.
