Yes. You need to copy characters and maybe chartab to somewhere
outside of /proc, and then cat them back when you boot. So, for
example, to save the settings, you'd do something like:

mkdir $HOME/speakup
cp /proc/speakup/characters $HOME/speakup/characters
cp /proc/speakup/chartab $HOME/speakup/chartab

and then to restore your settings at boot, put something like the
following into a script that runs at boot:

cat $HOME/speakup/characters >/proc/speakup/characters
cat $HOME/speakup/chartab >/proc/speakup/chartab

Note that if you didn't modify /proc/speakup/chartab, you don't need
to save it, same goes for /proc/speakup/characters.

A much easier way of doing this would be to use the speakupconf script
that comes with speakup, the usage of which is described in the speakup
user's guide I believe.
