I doubt it. Especially because there will be other test takers.
Vineesh,
Just telling you what I know and think. I am not the expert. :)

When I was taking my TOEFL there was a girl next to me who was reading her passages aloud... It was really annoying

So, I think you can, but, please, think about other test takers )))

Don't worry guys I am not going to bother everybody by reading aloud - part of the reason I am asking this question :)

Thinking about other people is great but you have to think about your test as well. I could see the possibility that a proctor or even another test taker might ask you to not read in your normal voice so be prepared for that. Can you practice mouthing the words without actually making much sound?

Whatever you do you have to practice it BEFORE the test day. You cannot do one thing in practice and then do another thing on test day. Like reading out loud in practice or practicing in a completely silent room.

Whispering would be much better...

Dave,

That is a very good suggestion - I will start practicing by mouthing the words. Thanks a lot!!!

Consider subvocalizing. Many people subvocalize when they read. The brain does not recognize the difference between subvocalization and reading aloud. The same muscles involved in speaking are activated when subvocalizing. My point is there is no real difference, except you will not be making noise of course if you subvocalize.

that would be annoying to others in the room. I wouldn't be surprised if they complained
