You can create a midi output, with all the drawbacks and benefits.
As far as I know there is no lilypond "player", but to be totally
honest I'm not sure it would make so much sense as lilypond is
primarily a music typesetting language.

Do you also mean it doesn't make much sense to use PureData for
anything else than audio ?
No, nor I see the logic by which you assume I mean that from the above
statement.

Think of sentences like « It doesn't make much sense to use X as a Y
because X is primarily a Z »...

It can be dangerous/misleading to extract the general rule from one single, very specific example like this, and then re-apply it to a totally different domain/example.

That is, you are applying the logic assumption:

*If* Lorenzo says:
"It doesn't make much sense to use Lilypond as a midi creator as it is primarily a typesetting system"

*then* he also *always* thinks:

"It doesn't make much sense to use X as Y because X is primarily Z"

and *thus* Lorenzo thinks:

"It doesn't make much sense to use Pd as a [something-else-differnt-than-audio-creator] as it is primerily an [Audio-creation-something]

The part were you implicitly go from (cery) specific to general and back to specific again is the weakest - in my humble opinion ;)

Lorenzo.
