It literally means "have", so yes, in some cases "yao" can mean "yes".

For example, "Do you have (sell) DVDs here?" "Yao"

Or, it can also mean "have <insert verb here>".

For example, "Did you finish your homework last night?" "Yao <done>"

"Did you drink a glass of milk this morning?" "Yao <drink>"

In Cantonese, "yao" means "want" or "to want," while "yes" is typically translated as "hai" or "dak hai."
