Is it possible to call standard dialogs or create/open custom dialogs
from the TService::Before/AfterInstall and Before/AfterUninstall events?

Yes, but only if the service executable is being run in the context of a
user account that has access to the Interactive desktop. In other words,
only if a user has logged into the machine and then runs your service
executable directly. In which case, displaying dialogs in those events is
safe to do. Any other scenerio may not be safe, depending on where the
executable is actually being called from.
