Yes, XMODEM is what you want.  It does not require the BYE program.
It's available from SIMTEL20 as:

Filename                       Type     Bytes   CRC

Directory PD:<CPM.RCPM>
XMDM124.LBR.1                  BINARY  113792  4437H

If you are unable to access SIMTEL20 because of network restrictions
it's also available on my RCP/M Royal Oak (MI) which may be accessed
at 300 bps (Bell 103a), 1200 bps (Bell 212a), or 2400 bps (V.22 bis).
The telephone number is (313) 759-6569.  It can also be found on the
CP/M RoundTable on General Electric Information Services' GEnie.

You'll need a hardware overlay, which you'll find in XMDM-OVL.LBR.
Chose the appropriate one for your computer's I/O port arrangement.
