I don't think so, I guess tk internally simply uses an underlined font.
However, if you want to use a text widget, you may want to look at the
text man page, section TAGS, option bgstipple:
-bgstipple bitmap
Bitmap specifies a bitmap that is used as a stipple pattern for the
background. It may have any of the forms accepted by Tk_GetBitmap. If
bitmap has not been specified, or if it is specified as an empty string,
then a solid fill will be used for the background.
Maybe it is possible to set up a "misspelled" tag using an
appropriate bitmap, though it might take some tweaking to adapt one
bitmap to be usable with any given font.
Regards
Michael
