Knowing that F34 is coming out soon, I’d like to confirm a thing or
two about it, regarding packages.
I do believe that orca 40 will ship with F34, and orca is just an
example here, but, is there a way to make sure-see what packages and
what versions of those will be packaged in Fedora_
This is the main Fedora build repository search function. If you type
orca* in the search box and hit enter, you will see all versions of orca
built for Fedora, with the version of Fedora they are built for. I see
version 40 successfully built for f34 there.

You can do that for any package. If you only know part of the name,
you can use an asterisk, *, in front of and behind the part to do a
more general search. e.g. *orca* If you know regexes, you can select
that instead of glob, and fine tune your searches.
If yes, will it be autoupdated as new versions are pushed into the
repoes?
Yes, as packages are built they are pushed to the appropriate
repositories. Sometimes the latest packages aren't pushed to earlier
versions because they would be too disruptive of the system; those
versions are meant to be more stable, so they usually only get updates
that don't create potential conflicts.
