At least a microcontroller is needed. Either arduino or a PIC or etc

If you don't want to use Arduino or any other microcontroller, how are you going to drive the motor from XBee? XBeee is just a wireless interface.

Well, it depends 8-)

If it is simple control using push button and potentiometer for speed, that is possible without microcontroller, still you will need a motor driver.

XBee can be configured as standalone IO device, you can check one of our DIY project, PR20, XBee - Standalone Control and Monitoring, download the Detailed Description, it explains quite comprehensive about setting the Xbee.
