Yes.  Use the HTML element <style> and the CSS language in the head of your
page. Here's an example:

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css">
<style type="text/css">
<!--
   h1 { color: red; font-style: italic }
   p  { color: blue; font-family: Arial, sarif; font-size: 12pt }
   -->
</style>
</head>

The <meta> tag shown is not necessary but recommended.  You can use as many
<style> elements as you want.  If you notice, there are comment tags within
the <style> element.  These are necessary for older browsers that do not
support the <style> element.  This will keep the <style> element's contents
from being shown (rendered) on your page.  If your page also uses an
external style sheet, any styles declared in the head of your page will
override the external style sheet.
