yes, you just need to make your own.

take a look at /config/site_theme_paths.php

I need that right now too and from my experience it's like this that you can change your admin theme by using (in site_theme_paths):

$v = View::getInstance();
$v->setThemeByPath('/dashboard', "yourowntheme");

But you cannot change a submenu in the dashboard, eg.:

$v = View::getInstance();
$v->setThemeByPath('/dashboard/myownmenupoint', "yourowntheme");

But that is exactly how I need it. Any idea if that is possible?
