You can add a property to your StyleSelector and then use the property to pass a reference to the Style in XAML.

public class MyStyleSelector : StyleSelector
{
    private Style styleToUse;

    public Style StyleToUse
    {
        get { return styleToUse; }
        set { styleToUse = value; }
    }

    public override Style SelectStyle(object item, DependencyObject container)
    {
        return styleToUse;
    }
}

<Control StyleSelector="{DynamicResource myStyleSelector}">
    <Control.Resources>
        <Style x:Key="myStyle">
        ...
        </Style>
        <local:MyStyleSelector x:Key="myStyleSelector" StyleToUse="{StaticResource myStyle}"/>
    </Control.Resources>
</Control>
