Is it possible to set up my DNS records so that I can use DDG XMPP for chat instead of Google XMPP, while still using Google Apps for GMail?

You can do that in principle (XMPP servers for the given domain are stored in SRV records, e.g. for my domain praus.net, it's _jabber._tcp.praus.net) but I can't find anywhere that the DDG XMPP server supports custom domains. So you can do it but I think not with DDG just yet.
