Not sure you can do it through XAML.

A easier way might be to just handle the LoadingRow event. In xaml have something like:

Then in code behind

void dgResults_LoadingRow(object sender, DataGridRowEventArgs e)
{
    DataGridRow row = e.Row;
    row.ToolTip = row.DataContext as string;
}

Obviously you will have to change the code depending on how you are populating the data in the datagrid. This is also untested =)
