You can do it easily with RTE. Read RTE manual on how to create your custom styles. Then create necessary css file, add it to typo3, configure RTE and you ill be able to highlight text by selecting appropriate style in RTE.

See here long highlighted block: http://typo3bloke.net/post-details/archive/2007/october/17/the_parable_of_the_two_programmers/index.htm

This is tt_news with custom styles.
