OpenSCAD doesn't do textures. Neither does STL format.

You could add raised text, protruding from the model.

import("your_stl.stl");
translate([x,y,z]) // to move to the position where you want text
rotate([x,y,z]) // to align with the face of the stl
linear_extrude(height=3, convexity=6)
text("your text");
