You could search for "javascript textarea editor" or something similar. There are editors which convert textareas into WYSIWYG editors though that might be a bit too much for what you require.

It is Possible. Declare a Javascript variable and assign value to it. I assume data is coming from JSP using database connection. Use proper jsp tag to assign value <%= %> to javaScript variable.
now set value of textarea to the variable of javascript.

Show an example of your data. You can use styles to set the colors and fonts, e.g.

color: red;
font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif

or with javascript:

obj.style.color = "red";
obj.style.fontFamily = "arial, helvetica, sans-serif";
