Have you tried it?

I've certainly used faces (and CJK characters etc) in Emacs tooltips
[under X11] and they worked just great.

Hmmm; here's a simple example:

   (x-show-tip
    (propertize "*** hello ***"
                'face '(variable-pitch :foreground "green"
                                       :background "steelblue" 
                                       :height 3.0)))
