Xna can be used to create a game engine, and since it already has a lot of game-related functionality(audio/resource management/networking/etc.) built into it, it will most likely be easier than using DirectX or OpenGL, which only provide you with an interface to the GPU, where you have to write all that other stuff yourself.

For making a game, the best thing to do is to get some small games done first. A spacewar clone, tetris, pong, whatever, will all be good startingpoints. The Xna Game Studio also has some starter kits (mini-games) that show how Xna can be used. You are free to use those as a base for your own games.
