I’d like to amend this statement slightly:

In order to process your registration, we ask you to provide the following information. Please note that all fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.

Instead, I’d like it to let registrants know that there is some flexibility, before they’re given an error message. Something like this:

In order to process your registration, we ask you to provide the following information. Please note that all fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required. However, if you have only one phone, type N/A for “not applicable” into one of the two boxes.

How can I do this?

Can this be accomplished in either my site-specific plugin or in My Custom CSS?

CSS is intended to apply styles to your site, it is for visual changes. A text change may seems like a visual change but its actually not, changing the text that is on the page from black to red, is a visual change.

So to do this you need to use your site specific plugin to change the text before the CSS styles are applied.

By site specific plugin I’m assuming you are referring to the one mentioned here:

Is that correct?

If so add:

'In order to process your registration, we ask you to provide the following information.%1$sPlease note that all fields marked with an asterisk (%2$s) are required.' => 'In order to process your registration, we ask you to provide the following information.%1$sPlease note that all fields marked with an asterisk (%2$s) are required. However, if you have only one phone, type N/A for "not applicable" into one of the two boxes.'

To your list of translating strings. You know how to add additional strings yes?
