I created an objected and multiplied it with an Array Modifier, but the problem is:

X - original object

X X1 X2 X3 X4 X5 ... Xn- final object (array size = n)

I'm only able to edit X, and if I do, all the others Xn will change as well.
How can I reverse this? If i want to edit only, for example, X4 face or vertex.

This is intended functionality - it is supposed to work like that. An array modifier makes an array of a single object so if you change that object, all the array is supposed to change as well.

You can apply the modifier and edit the generated geometry as you wish or if you wish to have multiple objects you can duplicate them with Shift+d. If you perform the transforms with the duplicate operator(move or scale or rotate the object right after pressing Shift+d before confirming it) you can then repeat the action with Shift+r to make an array quickly.
