You could amend the property value of a rule that is already working (ie change
16px to 11px to "see" what it looks like). Otherwise it should add a rule
relative to what is selected in the HTML pane. Atleast my setup does (does ff
dev edition, ff38, fb2.0.9 and latest fb3(unsure exact version at time of
writing)).
Depending what rule you are trying to override a combination of adding a new
rule, adding inline styles and amending values of existing rules should achieve
the results you want. Like anything think outside the box.
Further than that you might need to look at local development perhaps.
I'm not a firebug dev so unfortunately I can't comment on the possibility of
pasting in a whole rule set of CSS using the styles pane - personally my
projects allow local development so I have no need for this. I'm aware however
there are other tools specific for editing and saving CSS online - that may be
another option for you...?
