Without testing, I'd guess that if you linked your stylesheets like this:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="screen.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print"  href="print.css" />

...then you could use JavaScript to modify the media attribute, 
changing "print" to "screen" and "screen" to "xscreen" (or something 
else that would be ignored).
