Afaik the architecture of fpc is such that several object models can
coexist. E g there is support for the Delphi classes, old style Turbo
objects, and even C++ objects (at least some work is going on). So I think
it should be possible to implement yet another model, but perhaps some other
guru can give a better answer.

IIRR Metrowerks did add some support for Objective-C classes to their
Pascal.
