That was pretty easy in a text widget.

Then try to embed a Text widget in the cell.

Update: A quick demo: 

use strict;
use warnings;
use Tk;
use Tk::TableMatrix;

my $top = MainWindow->new;

my $arrayVar = {};
foreach my $row ( 0 .. 7 ) {
    foreach my $col ( 0 .. 3 ) {
        $arrayVar->{"$row,$col"} = "r$row,c$col";
    }
}

my $tmx = $top->Scrolled(
    'TableMatrix',
    -rows          => 7,
    -cols          => 3,
    -variable      => $arrayVar,
    -resizeborders => 'both',
    -titlerows     => 1,
    -bg            => 'white',
);

#---

my $c = 2;
foreach my $r ( 1 .. 7 ) {
    my $tc = build_text($top);
    $tmx->windowConfigure( "$r,$c", -sticky => 's', -window => $tc );
}

$tmx->colWidth( $c, 20 );
$tmx->pack( -expand => 1, -fill => 'both' );

Tk::MainLoop;

sub build_text {
    my $frame = shift;

    my $tc = $frame->Text( -bg => 'white', );
    $tc->tagConfigure( 'blue', -foreground => 'blue', );
    $tc->insert('insert', 'Text with ');
    $tc->insert('insert', ' blue ', 'blue');
    $tc->insert('insert', ' word ');

    return $tc;
}
