Darren:

 

You are correct, the answer is no.

 

RenderX is a composition engine, interested in fonts, kerning, line endings
and laying out pages in a "page description language" (PDF, Postscript, AFP,
PPML, .).

 

You are asking for a RIP . something that takes the composed information
output from a product like RenderX and "RIPs" it to a bitmap.

 

Short answer . Use Ghostscript.

 

Output RenderX -> PDF or Postscript and the send PDF/PS to Ghostscript to
get a bitmap.

I think the answer is no, but just in case I've missed it somewhere: Does
XEP provide a method to produce output as an image, such as PNG?

 

So the process would be XSL:FO -> XEP -> PNG for example.
