It's more like this:
cssSelected {font-weight: bold;}
cssDeselected {font-weight: normal;}

cssEnabled {background-color: black;}
cssDisabled {background-color: gray;}

How to change an object to Enabled&Selected from Enabled&Deselected if an object can have only one 
class?

you could do 4 classes:  cssEnSel, cssEnDes, cssDiSel, cssDiDes
but with 2^n classes for each object (n=variable properties) the style sheet will be longer than 
the html document.
