With 2.11.49 the markup does not collide with the tuplet bracket. With
2.10 you could try increasing the padding of the markup.

%%% Begin %%%
\version "2.10.33"

\paper { ragged-right = ##t }

\relative c' {
 \clef bass
 \time 4/4
   a2 \times 2/3 {\once \override TextScript #'padding = #2
   a4_\markup { \italic marcato } a a}
}
%%% END %%%
