I don't think so. If yes so what the meaning of this chapter in the manual:
22 HTML Commands
Here is a list of all HTML commands that may be used inside the documentation.
page 101 of the pdf file of the 1.3.2 version.

The FM seems to say it's not a feature but it could exist a work around
used by someone.
Maybe this is more a new feature request/wish for the developer team.

In any case here is the Doxygen file snippet:

/*! \page htmltest HTML test

<u>I want this under lined in (HTML) output</u>


*/

and the HTML result:

<!-- Empty HTML header file -->

<a name="top_of_the_page"></a>
<a href="index.html#top_of_the_page">Index</a> |
<a href="pages.html">Related pages</a>
<br>
<hr width="75%">
<!-- Generated by Doxygen 1.3.2 -->
<h1><a name="htmltest">HTML test</a></h1>
I want this under lined in (HTML) output <!-- Empty HTML footer file -->
<br>
<hr width="75%">
<a href="#top_of_the_page">Top</a> |
<a href="index.html#top_of_the_page">Index</a> |
<a href="pages.html">Related pages</a>
