you can do that using the low level yet undocumented but feel free to 
document them (one example per macro will do) macros:

\setcurrentfont
\setcurrentfontbody
\setcurrentfontstyle
\setcurrentfontbodyalternative
\setcurrentfontalternative
\setcurrentfontsize
\setcurrentfontstylealternative
\setcurrentfontstylesize
\setcurrentfontalternativesize
\setcurrentfontstylealternativesize
