How to tell to the SVG image to use another CSS file ?
w.css (white background)
svg { background-color:white; }
path{ fill:none; stroke:black; stroke-width:8px; }
b.css (black background)
svg { background-color:black; }
path{ fill:none; stroke:white; stroke-width:10px; }
image.svg
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="w.css" title="classic" ?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="b.css" title="contrast" alternate="yes" ?>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="100%" height="100%">
<path d="M150,100 H50 V300 H150 M250,300 H300" />
</svg>
example.html
<html>
<body>
<embed id="svg_image" src="image.svg" type="image/svg+xml" />
<script type="text/javascript">
var embed = document.getElementById("svg_image");
function change_css(file){
var svgdoc = embed.getSVGDocument();
var b = svgdoc.childNodes;
for (var i=0; i<b.length; i++){
var itm = b.item(i);
itm.Data = "href='"+ file +"' type='text/css'" ;
}
}
</script>
<input name="c" type="radio" onclick="change_css('b.css');">High contrast<br>
<input name="c" type="radio" onclick="change_css('w.css');" checked="yes">Classic
</body>
</html>

Maybe jQuery SVG (keith-wood.name)...

It's probably not the best idea to switch actual stylesheets. You're probably better off if you set a CSS class on a very high level and then switching that class with Javascript. Then you can put all the CSS rules in one file and just have to use selectors like (simplified):
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="someclass">
<style>
.someclass .mypath { stroke: blue; }
.someotherclass .mypath { stroke: red; }
</style>
<path d="M150,100 H50 V300 H150 M250,300 H300" class="mypath" />
</svg>
You know what I mean? It's like an if...else construct. If it's a descendant of someclass make it blue, otherwise make it red.
That said, I've heard that some browsers have problems with external stylesheets in SVG documents.

http://www.thesitewizard.com/javascripts/change-style-sheets.shtml happens to claim to explain how to enable/disable style sheets from javascript. Perhaps you can adapt it to SVG.
I did a quick experiment using firebug against a web page that embedded an SVG that contained a reference to an external CSS.
o=document.getElementsByTagName("object")
svg = o[0].getSVGDocument()
svg.styleSheets[0].disabled = true
It appears to work.
