You can override a whole Lyrics context with
\override Lyrics.LyricText.font-shape = #'italic

But that’s only suitable if you have your versions in different lines.

Pretty sure this would work for a single Lyrics context:

%%%%
\lyricmode {
  nor -- mal text
  \override LyricText.font-shape = #'italic
  i -- tal -- ic text
  \revert LyricText.font-shape
  nor -- mal text a -- gain
}
