If there is a "special" roller it's worth a try, but speaking from
experience, a regular long-nap roller will work just fine.

Better not to "scrub" the ceiling with the roller or lay on the paint
too thickly, because sometimes the texture will soak through and fall
off in big globs. Also speaking from experience. Better to use two or
more light coats and let them dry in between.
