Not with an XREF (although you can add Civil labels to an xref); you will need to use data shortcuts to use surfaces in the way you describe.

If you DRef the surface in and apply a hidden style you can still use the xref contours for display/plotting and create the profiles/sections/vol's/etc you need.
