You cannot do it dynamically on a single target, but what you can do is create another target (for example called BorderBackgroundAlt) whose background you can explicitly set to {TemplateBinding Tag} in its declaration.

Then you can have BorderBackgroundAlt collapsed by default, and in your animation frame instead of switching colors, switch visibilities, such that BorderBackground is collapsed and BorderBackgroundAlt is visible.
