A person should be able to speak with a broken neck, unless another injury or swelling has affected the vocal cords or jaw, for example. If there was throat swelling, this would be a medical emergency because throat swelling would block the airway.

Most likely not. If there was damage to the spinal column (and the nerve that runs along it), then no. If there was merely bone breakage in the neck, mobility is still possible.
