A: 

xaml is like html + css but its not the same , they have some things in common but nothing much important . Better find yourself good video tutorials or a book and learn it from there :)

No you can't really use CSS in a silverlight project.

If it's worth the effort, what you could do is manually load the required CSS files with the WebClient class and parse them to style your controls accordingly.

Someone did something similar with the Sharepoint theme files, which are yet another format. Using SharePoint thmx files to style Silverlight describes how to do it. Maybe you can find some inspiration from that.

A: 

Silverlight XAML ≠ HTML+CSS

These are all different technologies. You probably better know Adobe Flash. Well Silverlight is very similar. It (may) run un the context of a browser, but it has nothing to do with HTML and/or CSS. It uses XAML files (as you pronounce them zammel). So if you decide to write a Silverlight application you will have to use XAML files and use Expression Blend to design your UI. Doing so would be faster than hand editing XAML files by hand.
