There is currently no 64bit XBian if that's what you mean.
But you can manually install the 64 bit versions of the glibc and python libraries, of course all at your own risk.
When the work for the support of the Raspberry Pi 5 is done, we will probably work on a 64bit version of XBian. But that is a lot of work, starting with the fact that the Repository generation is only for armhf and not for arm64. It will take many many weeks until something usable is created.
Things always turn out differently than you think.
Since the Raspberry Pi 5 is still almost not available, the work on the 64bit XBian is very far advanced. Today the first 64 bit image was flashed and put into a Raspberry Pi 4. Booted flawlessly and Kodi (21.0 Beta) is also running

Oh my...that's wonderful!
Can I assume that is the xbian-ffplay_6.1+.arm64 that can be downloaded from sourceforge?
(I generally tend to avoid beta software, but I may just give this a try...)
Once again, you don't seem to have understood:
Code:
XBian files for internal use only
please do not download them directly, they will be used internally
As long as the 64bit image does not run reasonably smoothly, there will be no image to download. So please be patient
Oh yes and one more thing: there will only be a 64bit version of Kodi Omega, Nexus will definitely stay at 32bit.

Great to hear the quick turn of events. Can we install via NOOBS. I will install this weekend.
I am running arch aarch64 and 21.0. It runs pretty well but I really liked Xbian.

or is the .img file that was uploaded to sourceforge a week ago 64 bit?

No, a 64bit image has not been released yet
