I think it should theoretically be possible, its got the I2S input so you can easily connect an I2S mic (eg) directly to it and the CPU power should be enough for a neural network doing voice keyword spotting. The obvious code to do that would be Tensorflow and there is an experimental version of that for micro controllers, but its very new and I've not even been able to get it to compile cleanly yet. Espressif has the ESP-ADF for voice stuff on the ESP32, but that also is pretty recent and doesn't support custom keyword spotting yet, coming in March this year maybe. I gave up and ended up using a Raspberry Pi Zero to make a non-internet connected voice controlled light switch.
