According the the yesterday's release notes (January 22, 2019), the Spreadsheet Service was extended to include new classes like RichTextValue which makes now possible to set formatting for partial text.

Example from Class RichTextValueBuilder

// Creates a Rich Text value for the text "HelloWorld", with "Hello" bolded, and "World"
// italicized.
var bold = SpreadsheetApp.newTextStyle().setBold(true).build();
var italic = SpreadsheetApp.newTextStyle().setItalic(true).build();
var value = SpreadsheetApp.newRichTextValue()
    .setText("HelloWorld")
    .setTextStyle(0, 5, bold)
    .setTextStyle(5, 10, italic)
    .build();
