1. Is the MorphOS version of pascal mature enough to program a stategy game including graphics, sound, and disk i/o?
What Pascal you mean? Free Pascal? Should be. If you find bugs, i'll fix them. If you have feature request, i'll implement them, when i have time. Be sure you use the latest version available, which is 2.0.4, ATM. There's no public IDE yet tho'.
I started working on it, but it's not released yet.
You can use Cubic IDE or any other editor, in the meanwhile, with the command line compiler. If you need help setting up a 3rd party IDE, just drop a note. There are various configs out there on the net tho'.

Will the current version of pascal run in MorphOS 2?
Again, if you mean Free Pascal Compiler then sure, it will work. There's nothing inside the compiler, or the surrounding libs which stops it working on MOS 2.0, and even if there would be, i'd fix it. :)
