No: you'll need some code, if only to invoke the transformations. You don't say whether the preferences are set in advance as part of a user profile, or if you want to user to be able to change the appearance of the screen by clicking on buttons. You don't say whether you want to do things client-side or server-side, or what constraints there are on browser versions. These constraints have a major influence on the chosen design. Writing a parameterized stylesheet to handle lots of variations or presentation can be tricky; an alternative to consider is to generate a new stylesheet each time the user selects a different presentation.
