Noble gases are chemically inert and do not combine with alkaline earth metals. However, xenon will combine with highly electronegative elements like fluorine and oxygen forming compounds like XeO2, XeO3, XeF4, XeF6, XeOF4 etc.
Examples: XeF2, XeO3, XeOF2.
Xenon does not have to follow the octet rule because of its access to the 4d sublevel. The Lewis structure of XeO3 places a Xe in the center, double bonded to three O atoms and with one lone pair on the Xe.
Yes, noble gases can form compounds, but with great difficulty. And more so with the heavier gases (higher atomic number/weight) than with the lighter ones. The noble gases are generally considered to be inert, or lacking any reasonable way to form chemical bonds with other elements. That's what makes them noble or inert. Only in the laboratory can we "force" some inert gases to form compounds. And all these compounds are highly unstable.
Noble gases are generally chemically as they have completely filled orbitals. So any compound by xenon as in XeF2, XeF4, XeF6, XeOF4 etc are unusual.
These reactions are the followings: XeF6 + H2O → XeOF4 + 2 HFXeOF4 + H2O → XeO2F2 + 2 HFXeO2F2 + H2O → XeO3 + 2 HF
The chemical name for XeO3 is xenon trioxide.

Formula: XeO3
XeO3 has two names under the IUPAC naming convention, xenon trioxide and xenon(VI) trioxide. This unstable compound is also known as xenic anhydride.
Examples: XeF2, XeO3, XeOF2.
XeF4+H2O->XeO3+HF+H2O
