If the Cylon loyalty card ability says "If not in the brig...", can the player then activate it when he reveals himself as a Cylon while in detention in New Caprica?

No. Abilities that are affected by the brig are affected by the detention area. The FAQ covers this under Pegasus Expansion (page 2), Brig, Sickbay, Detention Area, Medical Center

If you don't like that answer, the Pegasus Rulebook (page 14) states:

As is the case with the Brig, players cannot use the reveal actions on loyalty cards while in Detention.

I dunno... Is it correct to interpret 'All abilities that affect the "Brig"...' as 'All abilities affected by the "Brig"...'? – Chry Cheng Feb 10 '12 at 1:10
@ChryCheng, ok. Referenced the Pegasus Rulebook under New Caprica locations, that covers all the similarities between new and old locations. – user1873 Feb 10 '12 at 3:00
Accepted your answer after having found it in the rulebook myself. I didn't look hard enough before. – Chry Cheng Feb 10 '12 at 7:33
