More and more, yes. Taking Dark Age of Camelot for example, many of
the top PvP guilds use teamspeak. With the scope of activity going
on in either open-field PvP or castle taking, it is a boon. Even
some of the less-PvP orientated guilds use teamspeak to free up
fingers while on raids.

Well for a start you'll find it rare to have all members of your
70-odd guild participating in PvP at any one time. And using
teamspeak channels allows the congestion to be split up between PvP,
PvE, AFK, General Chat and so on. I guess in the case of PvP you
could incorporate different PvP channels, depending on your level
and the area in which you are fighting. Other than that, a
text/teamspeak combo would work.
