I suppose your xml file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<places>
<Placemark>
<name>529383</name>
<visibility>0</visibility>
<Snippet maxLines="0" id="s30"></Snippet>

<latitude>-23.456651</latitude>
<altitude>0</altitude>
<heading>0</heading>
<tilt>0</tilt>
<range>1000</range>
<altitudeMode>relativeToGround</altitudeMode>
</LookAt>
<styleUrl>#myicon_3028</styleUrl>
<Style id="sh_30">
<IconStyle>
<scale>1.3</scale>
<Icon>

</href>
</Icon>
</IconStyle>
</Style>
<Point>
<coordinates>-46.545475,-23.456651,0</coordinates>
</Point>
</Placemark>
<Placemark>

</Style>
<Point>

</Placemark>

</IconStyle>

</Point>
</Placemark>
</places>
Then just upload the file, scroll through the document nodes and modify the desired values. In this example I created an array to help change the Icon according to the name. Then:
<?php
$xml = simplexml_load_file('xml.xml');
var_dump($xml);
$associacoes = ['529383' => 'http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/kml/pushpin/ylw-pushpin1.png',
'123456' => 'http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/kml/pushpin/ylw-pushpin2.png',
'124816' => 'http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/kml/pushpin/ylw-pushpin3.png'];
echo 'antes:<br>';
foreach($xml->children() as $placemark){
/*********************************************
Exibição
*********************************************/
echo $placemark->name;
echo '<br>';
echo $placemark->Style->IconStyle->Icon->href;
echo '<br><br>';
/*********************************************
Modificação
*********************************************/
if(isset($associacoes[(string)$placemark->name])){
$placemark->Style->IconStyle->Icon->href = $associacoes[(string)$placemark->name];
}
}
echo 'Depois:<br>';
foreach($xml->children() as $placemark){
/*********************************************
Exibição
*********************************************/
echo $placemark->name;
echo '<br>';
echo $placemark->Style->IconStyle->Icon->href;
echo '<br><br>';
}
