SVG, MathML and XHTML all support a "style" attribute (in addition to > <link> and <style> elements.) Presumably any arbitrary XML file can contain > SVG, MathML and/or XHTML elements through the use of namespaces etc. As soon as SVG and MathML will be supported by the CSS Validator (ie the CSS properties associated with these languages), it will be very easy to add them. For the moment, the style in the XHTML namespace is the only one supported [1].
