If you need to handle OWL as OWL rather than as OWL graphs serialized to XML, you will probably be better off using a toolkit designed for the purpose than you will if you use a general purpose XML toolkit such as XOM.
If the OWLishness of your data is what's important about it, you'll probably find it easier to work with a library specifically designed to handle RDF, such as Jena (http://jena.sourceforge.net) or Sesame (http://www.openrdf.org). Both are Java toolkits for working with RDF generally, and Jena's support for OWL is pretty good. Both accept RDF/XML input and can generate RDF/XML output.

Hi,
I'm working to implement new editor for OWL(in Java) and iwant know if XOM
can handle with owl file.
If OWL is a well-formed XML file, then the answer is yes. XOM doesn't
know anything specific about OWL files though, different from any other
XML file. That logic you would have to code yourself on top of XOM.
