Nope. In theory you can do this with CSS media selectors, but a lot of email
clients (webmail ones especially) don't use CSS very well.
See:

The user's email client might strip the background out anyway, but probably
can't be relied on. Better to use print friendly colours to start with or
just send plain text emails.
