Unfortunately, that gives me an NSCannotCreateScriptCommandError.

I've been able to apply a named style to a selected row thus:

tell front document of application "OmniOutliner Professional"
   add named style "foo" to end of named styles of style of selected row
end tell

Note that if you say something like:

set style of aRow to named style "foo"

then the attributes of "foo" are copied to aRow, but the styles applied 
to aRow will not be connected to the named style "foo".
