It is, but I think I'd be more likely to say "Sometimes, I struggle to come up with the right words."
You can also say "Somtimes, it's a struggle to ..." rather than "I struggle to."
For what it's worth, I DO say things like that all the time! (Fortunately, it usually resolves itself eventually!)

Hi,
Is this natural?
"At times I struggle with coming up with the right words"
Yes, it is, because it is slightly awkward.
A bit more stylish would be to avoid the two uses of 'with' by saying
"At times I struggle to come up with the right words".
