For a specific directory, Is there a way I can get Apache to decompress files ending with XZ as it returns them to the client?

Apache only Serves, to do what you ask:
1. Apache serves the file to client
2. Script on client's computer would run every x minutes in <dir>, decompressing y number of files all ending in xz

You can use mod_ext_filter to achieve this, shouldn't be too hard.
