Can I convert OGG to XM?

Hi! I am working on a music mod for SRB2Kart, and I am wondering, can I convert a looping OGG to an XM file? This is for a song that requires XM unlike other songs that require OGG.

I think this procedure would be the easiest:
1) Go to OpenMPT's sample editor and load the OGG sample.
2) From the editor, save the sample as a WAV file.
3) Now go to File -> Open and locate the WAV file. This will cause the WAV file to be converted to an IT file.
4) After opening, go to View -> Song Properties and from the first drop-down, choose the XM format and press OK. Now you can save that XM file.

Do note though that XM files can only contain uncompressed sample data, so the resulting XM file will typically be ten times bigger than the original OGG file. This may or may not be a problem depending on the use case.
