Yes. Both "for" and "roar" have a long O (the OA sounds like O in oar, boar, soar).
A short "o" sound is usually found in closed syllables where the vowel is followed by a consonant (e.g., "hot"). A long "o" sound is typically found in open syllables or with a silent final "e" in words (e.g., "hope"). Patterns and common spelling rules can also help determine the pronunciation of the letter "o" in different words.
