Short answer: no.

Long answer: a .mxd file is a "project" file. It's nothing but a bunch of 
links to data files (or database connections, or WMS/WFS links), and 
the "stylesheets" applied to each one, plus the layering order, plus 
(optionally) VB scripts embedded in the project file.


A .mxd file is not data. And OSM is All About The Data(tm).
