You would want to use two copies of the Color Background Based on Alert Condition, one for each color.

The tricky part is putting together the Alert itself. To get you started, here is what you would use to color the background of a bar that opened between the beginning of the hour and the first 9 minutes and 59 seconds of the hour.
=AND(FRACTIME(BARTIME * 24) < (TIME(0, 9, 59) * 24))

For more information on how to work with Time in alerts refer to the information for BARTIME at the following link:
