Sorry, this won't work.  Borland Pascal is a 16-bit DPMI program
whereas DJGPP produces 32-bit DPMI programs, and the DPMI spec
forbids running these two types at the same time.

There's only one thing you can do: switch to GNU Pascal (there's a
DJGPP port in the v2gnu directory at the same place you get DJGPP).
