Are there any text selector in jquery ?

No. jQuery works primarily with elements and gives you very little for handling text.
To do a find-and-replace on text you will need to check each text node separately and do DOM splitText
operations to take it apart when a match is found. For example:
function findText(element, pattern, callback) {
for (var childi= element.childNodes.length; childi-->0;) {
var child= element.childNodes[childi];
if (child.nodeType==1) {
var tag= child.tagName.toLowerCase();
if (tag!=='script' && tag!=='style' && tag!=='textarea')
findText(child, pattern, callback);
} else if (child.nodeType==3) {
var matches= [];
var match;
while (match= pattern.exec(child.data))
matches.push(match);
for (var i= matches.length; i-->0;)
callback.call(window, child, matches[i]);
}
}
}
findText(element, /\bWorld\b/g, function(node, match) {
var span= document.createElement('span');
node.splitText(match.index+match[0].length);
span.appendChild(node.splitText(match.index));
node.parentNode.insertBefore(span, node.nextSibling);
});
