you won't be able to insert other things than text-element with css
BUT, what you want to do can be achieved this way :
.textblockquote:before{
color:green; /* <-- apply the styling you want */
content: "\0022"; /* <-- escaped unicode for 'quote' */
}

You can achive this with hexadecimal characters, but you shouldn't :)

No, CSS is all about styling, not adding code. You might be able to workaround this, but it's very bad practice.
It will probably be easier to achieve the requested effect or design in another way.

Its possible but its designed for text not html. http://www.quirksmode.org/css/content.html,

You can add content as text for example, and customize it for you needs. In your case, you can add quotes in content of :before and :after elements, and absolute position them where you want.
