Run JS inside CSS (OnLoad)

Question

I want to run js inside CSS when the page loaded.
Is this possible?

html{
    width: expression(document.getElementById('BeneficiaryLabel').innerHTML = 'test');
}

this doesn't work.

Thanks

This is absolutely not possible.

You have it a bit backwards: You'll have to call your Javascript from within the HTML document, not the CSS.

Use the JS to select the CSS then apply your width function.

Why not just have the javascript do it at document load using javascript outside of the CSS file?

You cannot mix CSS with JS, will not work at all.
