Bind to the coupon element, rather than the teamcoupon_name element, and then use the labelField attribute of the combobox to reference teamcoupon_name. 

<mx:ComboBox dataProvider="{xml_teamcoupon.lastResult.coupon}" labelField="teamcoupon_name" />

Now, you can get the currently selected element using combobox.selectedItem, and the id by referencing combobox.selectedItem.teamcoupon_id.

Since the id node is on the same level as the name node, you'll need to reference the parent node first.

Something like:

teamComboBox.selectedItem.parent().teamcoupon_id
