I just exposed QgisApp's mActionCopyStyle and mActionPasteStyle to
QgisInterface [0]. Is this what you are looking for (in Python)?

Usage:

  iface.setActiveLayer( someQgsMapLayer )
  iface.actionCopyLayerStyle().trigger()

  iface.setActiveLayer( someotherQgsMapLayer )
  iface.actionPasteLayerStyle().trigger()

Regards,

Larry
