There is an Environment Overrides panel in the toolbar on top of Xcode's Debug Area. It allows you to select some of the most common accessibility options and Dynamic Type sizes, like in the Accessibility Inspector, plus select dark/light mode.

If you use Interface Builder to build your app’s layout, there are some basic accessibility attributes that can be configured from there. They can be found in the Identity Inspector in the right-side panel in Xcode.

If you are using SwiftUI to build your apps, there is a fairly basic but very useful Accessibility Inspector built right there in the Inspectors Panel, on the right side of Xcode.

When working with Dynamic Type, I find it useful to remember that sizes for the different text styles won't scale linearly, nor will they do proportionally between them. For larger dynamic type sizes, styles will come closer together in size.
