Is there a way to get element by XPath using JavaScript in Selenium WebDriver?

— You can use document.evaluate:

  Evaluates an XPath expression string and returns a result of the specified type if possible.

It is w3-standardized and whole documented: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document.evaluate

function getElementByXpath(path) {
  return document.evaluate(path, document, null, XPathResult.FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE, null).singleNodeValue;
}
 
console.log( getElementByXpath("//html[1]/body[1]/div[1]") );
 
<div>foo</div>
