Getting Post ID at “stylesheet” and “template” hooks

This is not possible via those hooks. It’s too early.

The reason it isn’t possible is because theme loading happens very early. There is no post to fetch yet, WordPress hasn’t processed the URL or created the main query. It’s so early that post types haven’t been defined yet. Even the init hook hasn’t happened.
