In my experience,
if you make an epub with your fave' fonts included in the epub (e.g. the .TTF file) and reference those fonts with respect to their position in the epub (not on the device in the device's fonts folder), then kobo will still not use those fonts.
Somebody else said they got it working. I don't even believe them at this point. Maybe there is a way.

I remmeber it was rather tricki with the Kobo wifi, though that might have improved in more recent updates. With Kobo touch, however, embeded fonts work very well.
I didn't even realize that they didn't work in the case of body { } sytling until JSWolf pointed it out. (Probably because I end up feeding most of my epubs though Calibre, which automagically fixes when it puts all styling elements into Classes when it re-formats css)
That's rather technical and what not, but if you have an e-pub that uses different fonts in different sections, those should most deffinately work in the Kobo touch with no other modification whatsoever. If you're having trouble with an e-pub, it's probably malformed somehow. I'd be happy to assist if you have an example.
