You can do that with the DOM e.g. (C#)
XmlDocument xmlDocument = new XmlDocument();
xmlDocument.Load(@"file.xml");
xmlElement stuff =
xmlDocument.SelectSingleNode("root/stuff[@id = '1']") as XmlElement;
if (xmlElement != null) {
XmlElement stuff2 = xmlDocument.CreateElement("stuff2");
stuff.AppendChild(stuff2);
}
xmlDocument.Save(@"file.xml");
