I think there is no such tag. The document is not divided to pages, the flow of the document is split during rendering. It was true for doc format, and it's very possible for docx. – Sasha Reminnyi
Agreed with LexRama - there is no such tag. Word documents are flow documents and technically do not have "pages". – Todd Main

However, after Word (or Word Automation Services) has rendered the document, you can find the w:lastRenderedPageBreak element, which, combined with hard page breaks, can let you know where page breaks are. There are no guarantees about this - you could potentially go into an Open XML document and alter content using the Open XML SDK, and then the w:lastRenderedPageBreak elements would not be in the correct place.
