Roval CLX wheel convert to XDR driver

As we know certain Roval wheels for road and mountain use the DT Swiss ratchet drive system. I want to convert the Roval CLX 24 from 10 speed to 12 speed and need to know if anyone who has done this conversion can verify the part(s) and part number(s) for the piece(s) to complete the conversion. The axle is QR.
Specialized is quite mute on the origins of the hub, but is very open about using DT Swiss designed freehub body internals. They do not let on to compatability between Roval and DT Swiss components used on the hub. I know the star ratchets can be interchanged freely, however can the whole freehub body be interchanged?

You can go right to the source. I have had occasion to contact Roval directly and a real person will answer the phone. 1 877 808 8154 https://rovalcomponents.com/collections/road
