For validation against XML Schemas you can specify xsd files using the
following properties [1]:
http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-schemaLocation
http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-noNamespaceSchemaLocation

If you have additional questions, please send those to the
xerces-j-user@xml.apache.org mailing list.
