Yes, there is a route from DocBook to MS Word, using the stylesheets that in 
the "roundtrip" directory in the Docbook XSL distribution.  It is restricted 
to a subset of DocBook currently, but might be sufficient for your purposes. 
See:

There is also a route to formatted plain text (ASCII or not) with a helper 
app, as described here:

   http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/FormattedText.html

I have used it when I needed formatted plain text output.
