This is useful, but unfortunately it won't suffice. Wikidata also has pages which are wikitext (for example, https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Names). These wikitext pages are in the XML dumps, but aren't in the stub dumps nor the JSON dumps. I actually do use these Wikidata wikitext entries to try to reproduce Wikidata in its entirety.
If you are also using the same software (Wikibase on MediaWiki), the XML dumps should Just Work (tm). The idea of the XML dumps is that the "text" blobs are opaque to 3rd parties, but will continue to work with future versions of MediaWiki & friends (with a compatible configuration - which is rather tricky).
