Try with html:

String labelText =
  "<html><FONT COLOR=BLUE>My</FONT>" +
  "<FONT COLOR=RED>Text</FONT></html>";
JLabel lbl = new JLabel(labelText);

You can use HTML in JLabels, so this should work:

JLabel lbl = new JLabel("<html><span style='color: blue;'>My</span> <span style='color: red;'>Text</span></html>");

Yes, check How to Use HTML in Swing Components.

JLabel lbl = new JLabel("<html><font color=blue>My</font><font color=red>Text</font></html>");
