No, it isn't on Freesat and is encrypted on Astra 28, so only available to Sky subscribers at the moment.

It's certainly there for the FTA market and some of the content is available on other channels. However that content is usually available on other FTA channels, so FTA viewers can also get the content elsewhere. That's just how tv is these days, multiple repeats over multiple channels.
The fact that Fox cross promotes YourTV on their main pay-tv channel would suggest that it isn't just intended for pay-tv refuseniks, they appear to be actively trying to build the audience for the channel.
