Not easily and not safely. I suspect that doing this violates HCI 
guidelines. The title is a button with a  label or other widget in it. 
there's no approved way to access the button to change the background 
color. As an alternative you could make the background color of the 
cells in a column different colorsby setting the background property of 
the cellrenderers.
