Red M has covered SciTE's handling of global themes for GTK widgets but that doesn't cover theming the text editing area where syntax styling is applied to produce visual styles. SciTE provides basic support for preferences reacting to the system's dark mode with a $(Appearance) property.
SciTE does not support theming in a way that is similar to most editors. Each individual lexical class specifies style attributes and there is no lookup into a theme definition. Therefore, it is not currently possible to create a dark theme for SciTE. I have no plans to work on this.
