<trkpt> element of GPX schema is defined at
http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1/#type_trksegType
and in detail at
http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1/#type_wptType

No, XML doesn't explicitly say that you can move a nested element into 
parent element's attribute and vice versa. However it is true that many 
XML schemas do provide this interchangeability (they allow same thing to 
be specified either way).

What tool did give you that faulty GPX?
