There was a thread a couple of months back on filling a curve with a color gradient, you could apply those same techniques with a bitmap pattern (some adjustments may be necessary).
Or this may be something better suited to an outside program like gimp or imagemagick. You should also ask yourself why you want to do this, filling curves/polygons with other than solid colors (and even sometimes with solid colors) can create various illusions and end up distorting rather than enhancing graphs.
