Is it possible (using jQuery or otherwise) to set the style of a certain element to the :hover style defined in a stylesheet?

.regStyle {
   background-color: #000;
}

.regStyle:hover {
   background-color: #fff;
} 

Trying it out

$("#differentButton").click(function(){
    // this doesn't work 
    $("#someElement").addClass("regStyle:hover").remove("regStyle");
});
