The answer to your edited question is "yes, it is possible".
As a trivial example, let $H$ be an ideal $k$-bit hash function. Due to the existence of the generic birthday attack, $H$ provides only about $k/2$ bits of collision resistance — that is, an attack can, on average, find a collision after about $2^{k/2}$ hash function evaluations. Denote the output of $H$, given the input $x$, as $$H(x) = (b_1(x), b_2(x), b_3(x), \dotsc, b_k(x)),$$ where $b_i$ denotes the $i$-th bit of the output.
Now define the $k$-bit hash functions $$H_L(x) = (b_1(x), b_2(x), b_3(x), \dotsc, b_{k/2}(x), 0, 0, \dotsc, 0)$$ and $$H_R(x) = (0, 0, \dotsc, 0, b_{k/2+1}(x), b_{k/2+2}(x), \dotsc, b_k(x)).$$
That is, $H_L$ is the same as $H$, except that the last $k/2$ bits of the output are replaced by zeros, and $H_R$ is the same as $H$ except that the first $k/2$ bits are replaced by zeros.
Now, clearly, either of $H_L$ or $H_R$ alone only provides $k/4$ bits of collision resistance. If, say $k = 128$, then $H$ may still be considered practically collision-resistant (effort to break = $2^{64}$), but finding collisions for $H_L$ or $H_R$ would be trivial (effort to break = $2^{32}$).
However, by construction, $H_L(x) \oplus H_R(x) = H(x)$. Thus, the hash function obtained by XORing the outputs of $H_L$ and $H_R$ is identical to, and thus equally strong as, the original hash $H$.
That said, this doesn't necessarily mean that the XOR of two hash function always has better collision resistance than the original hashes — in fact, it's easy to construct examples where the collision resistance of the XORed hashes is worse than that of either original hash. (For a simple example, let $H$ be a collision-resistant hash, and let $H_A = H_B = H$. The either of $H_A$ or $H_B$ alone is collision-resistant, but $H_A(x) \oplus H_B(x) = 0$ for all $x$!)
More to the point, for real-world hash functions, it depends on why and how the collision resistance of the original hashes is compromised. In some cases, XORing two hashes might improve their collision resistance; in other cases, it might not, or it might even make it worse.
