No companion cells are not present in xylem.

Companion cells are specialized parenchyma cell, located in the phloem of flowering plants and closely associated with the development and function of a sieve-tube element. Its nucleus regulates the activity of the adjacent sieve element and to take part in loading and unloading sugar into the sieve element by maintaining pressure in sieve tube. Companion cells are present only in flowering plants but not in all vascular plants.
