You can do this with autocorrect if you apply formatting to the 
corrected text. When I tried it I automatically replaced 'shall' with 
the same word in italic highlighted in yellow.

In the past I've done this with VBA to highlight modal verbs which 
allows it to only be applied when required. Unfortunately this isn't 
available in Word 2008.
