No, sodium is not consodered to be a solvent. In theory molten sodium is a "solvent", and other group 1 metals will dissolve in it and form alloys when they cool.

The solvent (if it is entirely a solvent, as it is in this case) makes no difference. In theory, you would get sodium benzoate, but getting sodium hydroxide to react in a system including an organic solvent will not be easy as it is barely soluble. Vigorous agitation would be required.
