It's kinda hacky, but sure with HTML rendering it's possible.
select '<HTML><p>' || to_char(sysdate, 'DD') || '<sup>th</sup>' || to_char(sysdate, 'Month, YYYY') ||'.</p></html>' as superscript from dual;

Thanks smith, but I am using Oracle SQL and not MY sql
this HTML script in sql not working for me
-
Well, that is in fact Oracle SQL. MySQL does neither have sysdate nor dual.
If you don't use SQL Developer but SQL*Plus or any other client tool, then you are asking in the wrong forum.

Yeah that's Oracle. My real answer is the best way to do this is on your app, not via SQL.
