I can only talk about Northern German Platt in the fen areas around Bremen, but... no. Starting any word with an X is highly unlikely. You could try "ßer", though - I've seen that at least once. (In High German, of course, words can't start with ß. In Low German, however, there are no spelling rules, so...)
I don't expect you to be astonished at all - I just feel that trying to find standardized spelling for Low German is a futile exercise. People around here (native speakers) are trying, and failing badly. Even Platt phonetics differ from village to village, and there are dialects around that are spoken by only a few hundred people.
