Short answer: Not directly. ElevenLabs’ docs do not describe any workflow that ingests an .srt file to drive TTS pacing. SRT is documented as an export format (captions) for Dubbing, not an input. (help.elevenlabs.io)
How to achieve SRT‑style timing with supported inputs:
- Voiceover Studio: Convert your SRT to CSV and import as speaker,line,start_time,end_time. Then generate each clip with “Generate Audio Fixed Duration” to force the audio to match the provided timings. (elevenlabs.io)
- Dubbing Studio (with video): Use Manual Dub and upload a CSV with speaker,start_time,end_time,transcription,(translation). Dubbing uses fixed generations by default to keep clip durations, preserving your timing. (elevenlabs.io)
If you just need minor pace tweaks, you can also adjust the Speed setting (0.7–1.2) in TTS/Studio. (elevenlabs.io)
