  I don’t believe you can, but you can try. You’d most likely have to use the HTML editor, though, and thus code it all by hand.

  The caption feature does not allow you to format the text at all. If you want to do that, you will have to use a table—even one as simple as 1 column wide and two rows tall. Something like this:

  <table style="border: 1px solid #cdcdcd; padding: 2px; background-color: #eeeeee;" border="0">
  <tbody>
  <tr>
  <td>IMAGE_CODE_HERE</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
  <td>CAPTION_HERE</td>
  </tr>
  </tbody></table>
