The pillar package offers a number of options to format tibble printing.
https://pillar.r-lib.org/reference/pillar-package.html#package-options
For example, this is what I see on my Windows machine, which supports these options:
But when I set the same options for rmarkdown document, I don't see any difference in the printed output.
Is there a way to successfully get this to work or this is not supported in rmarkdown itself?
I'd say that from my markdown experience that Pillow will not work as markdown uses pandoc.
As alternatives, I'd recommend using the kable package for a similar look using it's themes options. A handy tutorial with using a relatively similar theme ->
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/kableExtra/vignettes/awesome_table_in_html.html
Another cool option of making really cool markdown tables would be to use formattable, which has a lot of in-depth options for formatting
And a couple of handy tutorials for that ->

Hopefully, this helps you out.
In the vignette for the tibble package, there is a possible solution. In your setup chunk of your .Rmd file, put:
knitr::opts_chunk$set(collapse = TRUE, comment = "#>")
library(tibble)
set.seed(1014)
options(crayon.enabled = TRUE)
options(pillar.bold = TRUE, pillar.subtle_num = TRUE)
knitr::opts_chunk$set(collapse = TRUE, comment = pillar::style_subtle("#>"))
colourise_chunk <- function(type) {
function(x, options) {
lines <- x
if (type != "output") {
lines <- crayon::red(lines)
}
paste0(
'<div class="sourceCode"><pre class="sourceCode"><code class="sourceCode">',
paste0(
fansi::sgr_to_html(htmltools::htmlEscape(lines)),
collapse = "\n"
),
"</code></pre></div>"
)
}
}
knitr::knit_hooks$set(
output = colourise_chunk("output"),
message = colourise_chunk("message"),
warning = colourise_chunk("warning"),
error = colourise_chunk("error")
)
In a new chunk:
broom::tidy(stats::chisq.test(table(ggplot2::msleep$vore)))
