The text is being selected would have to be a scriptable application.  
For example, here's something using Claris Emailer.  I didn't trap to 
make sure the selection is text; the script would have to be fleshed out 
for that, of course.
tell application "Claris Emailer"
	set the textToBeSpoken to the selection
end tell
say the textToBeSpoken
