I don't have a way to make a complete box appear around the words, but I can and do put a line above and below the words. This gets me most of the functionality that I am looking---i.e., the kind of unusual/special emphasis that you are striving for, I think!
To do this, I created a character format called "Important", but this can be anything, of course! :). I set its default font to have an underline (specifically, the "Numeric Underline") *and* an "Overline". See the character designer for more information. Applying this to the words in question, gives me *most* of the equivalent of the MS Word capability: lines above and below the words, but not the left and right side.
