Outlook supports color-coding by allowing me to set up categories for my meetings and events. I can use the Categorize dropdown to select an existing category or create a new one. Adding a color to each category ensures my meetings and appointments are shaded consistently.
Change color for all events in a calendar:On the left under My calendars, point to the calendar. Click More. and select a color or click Add. to choose a custom color.
No. the iCalendar format does not include any color or styling cues.

It is possible. You can use the pre-defined Outlook categories to show the schedule in different colors. Usually Outlook uses category names like "Orange Category", or "Red Category".
So if you add this to your ICS event you can see it in an orange color:
CATEGORIES:Orange Category
Of course, it only works on MS Outlook clients.
