It is no problem at all. I plan to write the TSR part in inline assembler.

But I am considering another attitude. At first to load tiny assembler driver hooking the keyboard interrupt. Then to call a heavy pascal program which will locate the TSR module in memory and patch the code. (kind of self-modyfying code)
