Undoubtedly it is possible, but you might have to write your own linker,
or a pre-processor for the Pascal, etc.
What might serve more easily is to take your ASM code, and drop it into
a Pascal program that reads essentially
{ whatever makes code in your Pascal units available }
begin
ASM
{ what you have in ASM, tweaked }
END
end.
That ought to work, but the tweak could be large, and your asm code
would need to understand the Pascal call interface.
