This has been done many times in the past, you just have to send the SLD
along with your request.
There are various ways to do so, like including it in the GET request, make
a post request,
point to a URL containing the full SLD, see the SLD 1.0 specification for
details,
there are also a couple of examples in the demo requests

Cheers
