Reader has no user interface for field properties but it can be done in Reader with a script.  You would have to create an interactive field or fields in Acrobat Pro first that changes the text color.  The command to change the text color is 

this.getField("TheFieldName").textColor= (a color from the color object);

Allow Rich Text Formatting in the form text field and users can change the color of text.
