My client wants 2 files: .avi and .mp4 in 1080p with the XviD codec.

The .avi was easy, I installed the XviD codec from the official website and exported the .avi using After Effects.

The .mp4 on the other hand is giving me problems.

I tried multiple converters and software to do it but all don't seem to have the option. The software I tried includes: After Effects, Wondershare, Freemake, Media Encoder, MPEG Streamclip, QuickTime Pro, VLC, Movavi, and others that I forgot. Most have the option to export to XviD but only in .avi.

Now I'm questioning if it's even possible. If anyone has the answer I would really appreciate it.

MP4 is a container format, and XVID is a codec, so in theory they are compatible. In practice, for some reason very few converters offer that combination.

I think that AviDemuxcan do this. But even if it can, I'm not sure that it's a good idea to use such a rare combination.

Since XviD is a video codec and .mp4 is a container format, you can do this. Few years ago there was numerous tools, but seems like they're not available or not in active developments now.

From a quick search, I found few tools, which may be helpful to you, but I can't guarantee it'll be very successful.
