I am just beginning to explore SvarDOS but as far as I can tell it does not have a screenreader of any kind, no.
On the main page of the SvarDOS website there are 3 builds of the OS available. One of them is the "BNS Build". This one comes with the Provox screen reader enabled during installation and is then installed along with the core SvarDOS packages.
This does not mean of course that the BNS version of SvarDOS "talks" on its own. For actual speech to be heard, one needs to have a Braille 'n Speak synthesizer connected to the COM1 port of the computer. In a virtual environment on a Linux host (VirtualBox, QEMU...) such BNS synth may be emulated via emubns <https://emubns.sourceforge.net/>.
This list being dedicated to FreeDOS, I advise to use the SvarDOS forum <http://svardos.org/?p=forum> or the SvarDOS bug tracker <https://github.com/SvarDOS/bugz/issues> for any questions or remarks related to SvarDOS.
