Of course, because you and your radio are traveling at the speed of sound....
Military jets routinely break the sound barrier and have no problem using the radio.

Since the air that the sound moves through is also travelling you can hear your radio. The speed of sound is measured relative to the medium (in this case, air) it travels through, so if you left your radio behind and then went faster than the speed of sound then you wouldn't be able to hear it.

Yes, technically, the speed of sound is just measure as the time it would take for the sound waves to reach you, so of course, you would hair the radio if you were traveling the speed of sound, because the radio sound waves arent effect by the outside (of you plane or whatever you in) speed, just you.

Assume that you were in your MG TD roadster, with the top up, windows in place, and the only speakers were in the rear. Then yes. The air that's the medium for propagation of the sound waves would be traveling along with you.
If you put the top down, lowered the windows, and folded the windshield down, then no. It would be like rowing a boat at 5 km/hr directly against a river current of 5 km/hr.

Traveling so fast, I doubt that you would be in one place long enough to get a single radio station frequecny, now if it was let's say an mp3 player you had connected to your years then you would hear it cause it is simply traveling to your ears. (different direction than your jet)

If you were in an enclosed container or vehicle.
