style

Is it possible to set the BorderBrush property in a style, to the value of the BorderBrush property of an instance of another control?

Something like:

<Style x:Key="{x:Type Controls:TimePicker}" TargetType="Controls:TimePicker">
    <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="[ElementName=txtText Property=BorderBrush]"/>
</Style>

The reason for this is that I'm using Infragistics controls that have a "Theme" that can be changed and I want my custom control to change border style at the same time.
