Kwanzo, Darling Dilema, Golden Zebra, and Malja are all variegated day lilies available in the nursery trade.

If the white markings are on a few leaves of a green plant it could be a chimera (a physiological fluke), or it might be caused by some type of disease, especially if the causative agent is a virus.
