Yes, assuming it meets other division requirements, but it can still be loaded only 8+1.

Yes. The XD-45 can be shot in CDP if loaded to 8+1. It meets the weight requirements and fits in the box. It also does not have any of the specifically
excluded modifications as spelled out in the rule book.
From the Rule Book.... pg 22 4. Custom Defensive Pistol Division (CDP) Handguns permitted for use in this division must: A. Be semi-automatic. B. Be .45 ACP caliber. C. Have a maximum unloaded weight of 41 oz., including an empty magazine. D. Fit in the IDPA gun test box measuring 8 ¾" x 6" x 1 5/8" with an empty magazine inserted. E. Be loaded to the division capacity of eight (8) rounds in the magazine plus one (1) round in the chamber. Should division capacity not be achievable because of lower magazine capacity, load should be to maximum mechanical capacity of magazine plus one (1) round in the chamber. Competitors must use the same capacity magazines through out the competition (Example: if you start with a 7 round magazine, you must use that capacity magazine throughout the match). High capacity pistols can be used as long as the pistol meets ALL division criteria. Pistols approved for SSP may also be used in ESP and CDP depending upon caliber, even if the pistol in question has a full ength dust cover. However, should the pistol in question have a modification that removes it from SSP, it must meet all other division criteria for ESP or CDP, again depending upon caliber. PERMITTED Modifications (Inclusive list): 1. Sights to another notch and post type (see "sights" in glossary for further information). 2. Grips (no weighted grips; see "weighted grips" in glossary for further details). 3. Internal accuracy work (includes: replacement of the barrel with one of factory configuration, the use of Accu-Rails, the use of Briley Bushings). 4. Factory installed cone style barrels are permitted on pistols with a barrel length of 4.2" or less. 5. Internal reliability work. 6. Checker frontstrap and backstrap. 7. Checker or square and checker trigger guard. 8. Cosmetic checkering/serrating 9. Extended thumb (may be ambidextrous) and Beavertail grip safeties. 10. Extended magazine release (button may not be oversize in diameter or protrude more than .2" out from the frame). 11. Full length guide rod manufactured of material that is no heavier than common steel. 12. Hammer and other trigger action parts to enhance trigger pull (includes over travel stop). 13. Beveled magazine well and add-on well extensions. 14. Custom finishes. EXCLUDED Modifications (NON-Inclusive list): 1. Full length dust covers of carbon or stainless steel. 2. Oversize diameter magazine release buttons. 3. Trigger shoes. 4. Slide lightening (see "slide, lightening" in glossary for further information). 5. Refer to Appendix ONE-A. Firearms-Non-IDPA-Legal Modifications.
