No you can't create a control array in asp.net like vb 6 or windows application.
you have to create every control on page be drag and drop thus embeded in HTML format.

For i = 0 To Controls.Count - 1

str = ctype(page.FindControl("lbl") , Label).Text)
If Left(str, 3) = "lbl" Then

End If
Next

Try to use literal. Literal is a control that inserts an html code in its place, that html code can be anything you want, even labels. You can se the text of the literal at certain event like on page loading or drop down list index change, it as simple as this

your_literal.Text = String.Format("<input type=""label"" name=""MyLabel""  id=""MyLabel{0}"" value=""{0}"" style=""background-color: #DE0221"" ", i)
