xfce isn't in any of our normal yum repo's that I see (including epel).  I do 
want to mirror centos extras, and set it up as another yum repository, but that 
is going to have to wait until after SL 4.7 comes out.

For the time being, you could make your own yum repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d/ 
and have it point to a mirror like
http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/centos/5.2/extras/i386/

Or you could always just go there and download all the xfce stuff.
