Yes it is. Just asign to the items in the style.fg or style.bg
sequences:
style.fg[NORMAL] = some_gdkcolor object
The sequences are special types that will set the appropriate structure

You mean a GtkText widget? If so, then the insert() method should allow
you to do this. If you mean a GtkEntry, then it only allows a single
colour (set by the widget's style).
