Styles do not support formats unless you use a very new tmux, so you will
not be able to do it like this.
You may be able to check the variable with if-shell -F instead, for example
set-hook -g pane-focus-in "if -F '#{==:#{window_name},netkit-vm}' 'set
status-style bg=blue' 'set status-style bg=red'"
You change the format to whatever you like.
