Sure, same as for all other elements.

With a class:
input.disabled {color:blue; background-color:lime;}

<input class="disabled" disabled="disabled">

With an attribute selector:
input[disabled="disabled"] {color:blue; background-color:lime;}

Selectors are explained here: <http://w3c.org/TR/CSS2/selector.html>

Both attribute selectors and styling of form elements in general aren't
supported by all browsers.
