Most new smart TV's have the Apple TV app, however while many smart TV's now have some sort of screenreader and accessibility, I still question if they can match an actual Apple TV with respect to accessibility. As for downloading an Apple TV app I doubt that is possible, either your smart TV has Apple TV or it does not. Keep in mind that The Apple TV 4K as in the physical device is m ore than the Apple TV service. You can access other things like Netflix, Disney Plus, Apple Music and so on via your Apple TV and you can also use the Netflix app, Disney Plus app and so on which are built in to your smart TV. For that matter you could get a Roku TV stick for $20 or $30 and you also get access to all of that. There is a lot of duplication so you just have to decide what you think you need in order to accomplish what you want to accomplish. The Apple TV 4K which was just recently released is not all that expensive, but if all you do is watch Netflix and Disney Plus and you find you can do this accessibly through your TV then you probably don't need it.
