When a stroke or TIA is actively occurring, yes, speech can slow down or become slurred. One of the "tests" any person can do if they suspect someone is having a stroke is to ask the patient to repeat a simple sentence. (Asking the person to smile and to raise their arms are two other tests.)
However, stress can also change the rate and frequency of speech.
