Recently support for regular expressions was added to the JOSM implementation of MapCSS.
http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help/Styles/MapCSSImplementation#Evalexpressions Maybe you can accomplish what you need with regexp_match(regexp, string, flags) It will return a list of matching groups, but I'm not sure how you can get back from a list to a string. It would be more convenient if the good soul who added the regex support would also add a regex replace function.
