Did the Italian army use observation balloons during WWII?

Quick answer is I am not aware of any use of observation balloons. Barrage balloons were used to protect harbors and others installations.

I did a quick check and didn't find any balloon units.

As always with the Italian military, I am prepared to be surprised. :D
