First of all: KML supports the styling of icons, but the
<color>-element is not supported for<iconStyle>by the Maps-API, so you cannot change the color of an Icon(see https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/kmlelementsinmaps for more details).What you can do is use different icon-images with the desired colors.
But afaik there is no “dynamic” way to change the
<href>of an<icon>.However, you may create a serverside script that parses the original KML and delivers a modified KML to google.
