Depends on what you mean by sarcasm. There is "mockery" (the verb {ckasu
<https://mw.lojban.org/extensions/ilmentufa/i/en/index.html#sisku/ckasu>} )
and verbal irony <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irony#Verbal_irony>.

Given that the proposed interjection modifier {xo'o
<https://mw.lojban.org/extensions/ilmentufa/i/jb/index.html#sisku/xo'o>}
parallels {zo'o
<https://mw.lojban.org/extensions/ilmentufa/i/en/index.html#sisku/zo'o>}
there is a strong indication that it means "veranl irony, not mockery.
That's why one unofficial dictionary states
<https://mw.lojban.org/extensions/ilmentufa/i/jb/index.html#sisku/xo'o>
that it's verbal irony.
