You could use sqlite-net, which does some of the mapping etc, and has a linq provider, tho it can be a bit basic at times (or was: might have got better since I pushed it hard last)
I think DBML is all linq2sql, and a quick google search shows that a) mono only ever partially supported it (not sure if MonoTouch ever would - I'm not sure if the underlying l2s stuff does things like Reflection.Emit that MonoTouch would disallow) and b) microsoft killed l2s, so I doubt that Xamarin or the core mono people would ever add it or maintain it. You might want to ask on the forums, incase someone there knows.
