Set up your tab order so you can quickly command-tab between Pages and Preview.

In Preview:
> Edit menu, Speech, Start speaking. 
> Command tab to Pages and type away.

You can turn off speech while typing. VO-command-V and cycle through until you 
get to typing feedback and set it to none.

The only thing you won't be able to do is pause and resume speech.

Alternatively, find a way to export the text to an audio file and play it back 
in iTunes or your playback program of choice.
