Adobe XD is a design tool producing prototypes that are viewable on HTML, but are not live HTML sites in and of themselves. It's a design tool, not an authoring tool.

Dreamweaver is an authoring tool that helps to develop complete websites.

In other words, they are chalk and cheese.

How complicated is it to convert the XD prototype into full HTML?  So basically the page layouts would be easily 100% identical but all the line dragging ease of use does not exist and has to be made through code?

You can export assets, like PNG and SVG, to Dreamweaver. You will still need to do the code yourself. Have a look at https://helpx.adobe.com/xd/help/export-design-assets.html
