yes, it indeed is
selection = getSelectedText();
if(selection.length >= 3) {
$(this).html($(this).html().addClass("selected");
}
to
selection = getSelectedText();
if(selection.length >= 3) {
var $spn = $("<span></span>").html(selection).addClass
("selected");
// append/set this '$spn' inside another DOM object
}
to note, your original/non-working code seems to be trying to set the
".html" of an <input> or <textarea>, that's not a valid method to do
on such items
