To a casting producer, does a screenwriter ever have a chance, if at all, to suggest or even mention actors that they have in mind to play certain roles?

Suggesting Actors

Of course they do.
Very often casting will come up in the first couple of meetings
a writer takes with the producer who is making their movie.
And the writer can suggest actors to the producer.
You know - of course - not to write actor suggestions into your
script. But the writer may, at some point, have the opportunity
to discus actors after the script is optioned.
