I believe you need to do the same as is done in LaTeX.

Select the paragraph or character style you are using, go to the Font Effects tab, Select Effects and clink on Small Caps.

Strictly speaking you do not want to change Fonts but just select a different application of the font in use.

If it is only for headings and titles etc, then just highlight each first character and increase its font size. You cannot do this for normal text as it will increase the line spacing on a line with a large first letter compared with a line without a large first letter.

Or try highlighting the text and Format > Character > Font Effects > Small capitals. This is Times New Roman.

Setting small caps, as described above, sets the lower case text to small caps, which are typically about 80% the size of a normal capital letter, In theory small caps are not merely a proportional reduction of the normal capital letter; they may be specially designed by the font designer, although the difference is hardly likely to be apparent to the layman The upper case text is the normal capital letter.
