For single packages it is very easy, just
apt-get install -t squeeze-backports <package>
but I don't know exactly which package to pull for Xorg. I would try
xserver-xorg-video-radeon and hope it will pull anything else needed
with it ;)

No, there is a 3.2 kernel on backports (it has bpo in it's name).
Kind regards,
