You can always force xelatex to use the type1 versions of the fonts:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[LGR]{fontenc}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{FiraSans}
\begin{document}

some text {\fontencoding{LGR}\fontfamily{cmr}\selectfont abcdefgh}

\end{document}

(replace cmr by the firasans family named used with pdflatex). 

But as David wrote it would be better to use unicode fonts together
with  a transliteration (teckit) mapping.
