ProVoice is an end-of-life technology, so probably not. Check the database here at radioreference.com for your area and see if any list ProVoice shows up in mode column (conventional) or type column (trunked). I don't know how it would show, as I don't think I've ever seen a PV listing, but hopefully it will stand out.
Look at this system:

If the EDACS system uses ProVoice, you'd see this note:
On a ProVoice capable system, talkgroups labeled with a
D in the Mode column would be using ProVoice. If the mode is instead listed as an
A, then that is a normal analog talkgroup & the ProVoice upgrade is not needed.
I have the upgrades and just got pro scan. Thank you for your help guys.
Also the pro voice upgrade.... is it worth it ?
Looking at your county (Obion) and your state (Tennessee), I do not see any ProVoice systems in your county, nor your state. A quick look at the closest counties in your neighboring states does not show any ProVoice systems either. As jt has already noted, ProVoice is a dying system type. In most areas, these are being replaced by P25 systems, quite often P25 Phase II. Unless you travel often to an area that still uses ProVoice,
and you can confirm that there is not a current plan to replace ProVoice, I would not purchase that upgrade. When the upgrade first became available, I purchased it for one of my 436HPs, because DFW Airport was ProVoice. A couple of years later, the airport transitioned to a P25 system, and the other ProVoice system in my region in Texas (Abilene) has also moved to a P25 system.
