If you want to run X, why not just install Orca? Sure it'll only work
under X, and you might have to turn voiceover off, but probably not. You
could always try vinux as a VM to play around with it.

I suspect that's not easily possible. The apps would need to
communicate state and type information for every object to Apple's
accessibility API, which would take a substantial bit of coding to
accomplish. From what I've read, other than text-based command line
stuff, the various GUIs from the unix world are not accessible. X11
has some add-ons to hook into other accessibility APIs but this is
only a subset overlay as there is no X11 accessibility standards or
even work being done on a standard.
