I thought doing this shouldn't be that hard (using CodeDOM), so I started working on a solution. The source is available at github. It's really just a beginning, it doesn't support many of the features of XAML, but it works for the code in the question.

If you are serious about this, you can work on that code further.

The XAML in the question produces the following output, that seems to work:

private ListView Get()
{
    ListView listView = new ListView();
    listView.Name = "listView";
    listView.Margin = ((Thickness)(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(Thickness)).ConvertFromInvariantString("0,0,0,164")));
    GridView gridView = new GridView();
    GridViewColumn gridViewColumn = new GridViewColumn();
    gridViewColumn.Header = "Devise";
    Binding binding = new Binding();
    binding.Path = ((PropertyPath)(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(PropertyPath)).ConvertFromInvariantString("devise")));
    gridViewColumn.DisplayMemberBinding = binding;
    gridViewColumn.Width = 80D;
    gridView.Columns.Add(gridViewColumn);
    GridViewColumn gridViewColumn2 = new GridViewColumn();
    gridViewColumn2.Header = "Libelle";
    Binding binding2 = new Binding();
    binding2.Path = ((PropertyPath)(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(PropertyPath)).ConvertFromInvariantString("label")));
    gridViewColumn2.DisplayMemberBinding = binding2;
    gridViewColumn2.Width = 120D;
    gridView.Columns.Add(gridViewColumn2);
    GridViewColumn gridViewColumn3 = new GridViewColumn();
    gridViewColumn3.Header = "Unite";
    Binding binding3 = new Binding();
    binding3.Path = ((PropertyPath)(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(PropertyPath)).ConvertFromInvariantString("unite")));
    gridViewColumn3.DisplayMemberBinding = binding3;
    gridViewColumn3.Width = 80D;
    gridView.Columns.Add(gridViewColumn3);
    GridViewColumn gridViewColumn4 = new GridViewColumn();
    gridViewColumn4.Header = "Achat";
    Binding binding4 = new Binding();
    binding4.Path = ((PropertyPath)(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(PropertyPath)).ConvertFromInvariantString("achatBanque")));
    gridViewColumn4.DisplayMemberBinding = binding4;
    gridViewColumn4.Width = 80D;
    gridView.Columns.Add(gridViewColumn4);
    GridViewColumn gridViewColumn5 = new GridViewColumn();
    gridViewColumn5.Header = "Vente";
    Binding binding5 = new Binding();
    binding5.Path = ((PropertyPath)(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(PropertyPath)).ConvertFromInvariantString("venteBanque")));
    gridViewColumn5.DisplayMemberBinding = binding5;
    gridViewColumn5.Width = 80D;
    gridView.Columns.Add(gridViewColumn5);
    listView.View = gridView;
    return listView;
}
