        Unfortunately, I don’t believe you can. Notepad++ highlights matching tags by a semi-transparent (~60% transparency) background color overlay, rather than by dotted underlines. Settings > Style Configurator > Global Styles > Tags match highlighting sets the background color for the highlighting of matched tags, but it ignores the Bold / Italic / Underline checkboxes.

          Like @PeterJones said, there is no builtin way doing this.
          But if you use a scripting language plugin you might be able to
          workaround to make it work.

          @dinkumoil - maybe something your ExtSettings plugin might offer too?
