A retail {not pre-installed OEM) version of Office 2000 will install and
function in Windows XP provided you have any needed qualifying product is
your Office 2000 is an upgrade version.
Office 2000 CD (retail, OEM, upgrade} can be used as a qualifying product
for any Office 2003 upgrade edition without installing. Just insert the CD
when asked for a qualifying product.
Not quite sure what you mean by upgrade. If you mean get office 2000 it to
work correctly on XP, then if you haven't installed them already I'd suggest
SR1, SP2 and SP3. The last two download as transferable files, but I suggest
you use http://download.microsoft.com/download/office2000prem/adminup2/SR-1a/WIN98/EN-US/O2KSR1aDL.EXE
to download SR1 as a transferable file (52mb). But if they are already
installed, then if my experience is anything to go by 2000 will work O.K. on
XP.

Office 2000 will run just fine on XP. I use it myself. Just install it and
go through all the upgrades.
