I'm using three types of annotations to comment my PDFs: highlights, free text, notes.
Highlights: the highlighted text is obviously found (in both DT3 and FT) since it is part of the PDF text but there's no way to limit the search to highlighted text. If this is what you're after I think you're out of luck.
Free text (text visible on the page) and notes (the notes that pop-up from a callout icon): I can confirm they are searchable in DT3 while they're lost in FT. Again it is not possible to limit the search to text contained in these types of annotations but at least they're found.
If you need to limit the search to annotations (text you highlighted or you added) the only option, as you wrote, is to export the annotations.
