Just track the status within your program using a variable:
Whenever a LED is switched on or off by your program set the status variable accordingly.

The above requires the state to be known when starting the program (e.g. by switching all LEDs off).

As an alternative read the pin state of the LED ports using digitalRead(). This will work also for ports defined as output.
