Do you mean style *elements* or style *attributes*? Style *elements* look
something like this:

<style type="text/css">
...
</style>

whereas style attributes look like this:

style="..."

It really helps if you use the correct terminology, as the answers may be
different for each interpretation.

In the case of <style> elements, it should be relatively easy to
post-process the page (using e.g. regular expressions in PHP) to merge
pull out the CSS from several style blocks and concatenate them into one.

In the case of style attributes on other elements, things get a bit more
tricky. It could also be done with a bit of scripting, but would require
more work.
