Is there a way to attach xenconsole to ttyS0 in dom0 as usual and still be able to use ttyS1 (com port 2) from linux. I simply tried to use the 8250 driver, but loading that module fails. I don't want to use xenconsole=tty since I access
this machine via serial console from other machine.

I doubt it, since the native serial driver expects to grab both ports and will fail completely if it fails on either one. What is wrong with binding to tty instead? It's just a name -- the I/O will still go thru com1 in Xen.
