As far as I know: no.

If I remember Paul Davis' explanation correctly: the main widget is not
accessible and he wouldn't change it, since it would be a huge amount of
work. I am not sure about other elements of the user interface, but
there might be more elements which are inaccessible. It's one of those
cases where accessibility would practically mean rebuilding the whole
interface.

As a possible alternative: have you tried or even considered Reaper? I
am not sure about its accessibility under Linux, but it is usable with
screenreaders under windows and mac.
...

I hope that helps somewhat.

Best wishes,

Jeanette
