Well I have not personally tested it, but there is a software called WinFlip. Once you download and run that exe file, the windows flip (windows+tab) should work like in windows 7 or vista

If you're talking about making it so that the windows in the "Flip" mode dynamically update as the applications redraw, then what you ask for is not possible in Windows XP.

Applications on Windows XP draw directly onto the screen, while applications on Windows Vista/7 draw on a compositing engine called Aero (if it is enabled). Since Aero captures all graphical output from the applications, it is able to update the preview windows in Windows Flip.
