I need to use RS485 with ESP32-C5-WROOM module. Is UART1 accessible for the WROOM module?

Sure, why not?

The WROOM module datasheet has a Pin Description table at page 13 which mentions LP UART and UART0, but not UART1.

5.2.1.1 UART Controller

ESP32-C5 has three UART interfaces, i.e. UART0, UART1, and LP UART. All the three interfaces provide
hardware flow control (CTS and RTS signals) and software flow control (XON and XOFF).

You can route the UART signals to any available IO pins as desired.

Thanks, that's much clearer now.
