That is simply not allowed. Below the relevant part of the Relax NG schema. It 
shows that a style from the text family may have only style:text-properties. 
Styles from the paragraph family may only have style:paragraph-properties and 
style:text-properties (in that order!).

        <define name="style-style-content">
                <choice>
                        <group>
                                <attribute name="style:family">
                                        <value>text</value>
                                </attribute>
                                <optional>
                                        <ref name="style-text-properties"/>
                                </optional>
