There is no such thing in xsl. You have to read css file, to parse it, to
resolve very complex logic of applying of style selectors and finnaly to add
appropriate fo attributes. I accomplished it recently and I can say it's
feasible considering some resonable restrictions.
For example:

css file:
.header {color: red;}

xhtml file:
...
<div class="header">
...

fo file:
<fo:block color="red">

PS. w3c even has API for css parsing called SAC and btw batik implements it.
