It's there, but in the epel repository.  Go get the
epel-release package from here:

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

(get the right one for your arch, links midway down the page), then 

  yum --enablerepo=epel search xfce

to see what's available.  EPEL has a pretty good compatability record
with RHEL (that's their whole goal in life), so odds are decent this
will work in your situation.
