In CSS you can apply multiple backgrounds to the same element (
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/CSS/Using_multiple_backgrounds)
and that may help you to achieve what you want.  e.g.

--paper-scroll-header-panel-full-header: {
        background-image: url(images/transparent-image.png),
radial-gradient(#ffb837, #f13c0d);
}
