Don't think the standard Cobras fit but I hear Cobra is supposed to be coming out with some stuff that will fit xr50s.

find out if they have 20mm axels or not. You can alway rig disc brakes and a sprocket adapter too if necessay

Well, I don't know off hand lol But it is possible. That's not to say that it wouldn't be more trouble than it's worth, but still possible. I've seen bikes that have polini rear wheels w/ the disc brakes that were fab'ed on w/ a sprocket adapter, but the first thing to check on is weather, or not the wheel barings will accept 20mm axels because that is what all xr50 forks/swingarms are 20mm.
