No, Mobi has no support whatsoever for CSS. CSS can be used in the input files to a program which creates Mobi books (such as Calibre), but it all ends up getting converted to attributes in the HTML tags, which is what Mobi uses.
Mobi's way of doing indents is to use the "width" attribute of a "<p>" or "<div>" tag. Eg,
will produce a 1em indent on the first line of the paragraph, while:
will produce a 1em hanging indent.
If you want fine control over the appearance of the Mobi, you'd be better off using these Mobi attributes directly in your HTML source, rather than relying on CSS being "converted" the way that you assume it will be.
