You may be able to achieve the same effect using named x terminals.
I have various colour schemes defined in ~/.Xresources[1], such as
! zenburn
zenburn*background: #3f3f3f
zenburn*foreground: #dcdccc
zenburn*color0: #3f3f3f
zenburn*color1: #ff0000
...
! deepsea
deepsea*background: #000040
deepsea*foreground: LightSteelBlue2
I can then start terminals with particular colour schemes by using
$ x-terminal-emulator -name zenburn
$ x-terminal-emulator -name deepsea
Perhaps you could define dark and light colour re-mappings for the same
mutt colour scheme this way, and name your terminals according to their
background colours?
[1] seems to be parsed at X startup, but if you want to make changes
carry across without restarting X, use
$ xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
