http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView.html#getTypeface()

public Typeface getTypeface ()

returns:

the current typeface and style in which the text is being displayed.

if(yourTextViewInstance.getTypeface()!=null){
   if(yourTextViewInstance.getTypeface().getStyle()==Typeface.BOLD || yourTextViewInstance.getTypeface().getStyle()==Typeface.ITALIC){
      //do your stuff
   }
}
