I don't think you can make an MSI for a UWP app (that it is a UWP built with XAmarin Forms is inconsequential), but you can sideload UWP apps or even install them from a web page.
See this document: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/packaging/packaging-uwp-apps
and to install from a web page:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/packaging/installing-uwp-apps-web
And a more general doc on installing UWP apps outside of the store:
