Yes, use the EXEC command.
Make sure to leave memory free with {$M }.
Look at examples in the help

Re:Can i execute dos command in pascal ver 7 ?..

I have the same question, though you need to be more specific. It's easy
to execute a DOS command in Pascal for DOS, use the EXEC command. I need
to do it in Windows Pascal. I have an encrypt and decrypt routine that
came from C++ (coded by a team member). I need to call those executables
in my Pascal CGI app. Any ideas?
