Can iTunes act as UPnP music server?

Hello,

I fail to find out if iTunes can act as UPnP music server
and if not, if it is planned to do so.

More and more wi-fi radios (like Roku) can connect to your
PC and stream the music from there provided that your
music server supports UPnP.

Many thanks for any hint...

No, iTunes itself does not work as a UPnP server, though other such servers can pull from the iTunes library, presuming of course that you import your tracks in a format such a server can handle. Whether or not Apple has any plans for iTunes to ever support UPnP, no one here will know or can say.
