Make Class Inherit Styling From Another External Class [duplicate]

Question

Is it possible to make a class inherit from another class (from a different CSS file)?

/* Make this class have all .form.control's styling. 
   form.control is located in a separate standard .css file*/
.token-input-list-facebook {
    .form-control;  
}

Edit Further information: The HTML element with the class 'token-input-list-facebook form-control' is dynamically generated by a third party library. An input gets turned into an input with a hidden ul that auto-suggests things. So I could go and edit the 3rd party javascript. But styling through stylesheets (CSS or LESS) is a more elegant method

Yes, you can import the standard.css file as reference and then invoke it. — Harry

Can you please clarify what this would do? I mean add an explanation instead of just giving a one line code.
