absolutely, but not that many Wirth languages are currently
implemented. There is GNU-Pascal http://www.gnu-pascal.de/
and GNU-Modula-2 http://www.nongnu.org/gm2/ The latter in
alpha/pre-beta state. Oberon can be compiled with Michael van
Ackeren's Optimizing Oberon-2 Compiler, which works as a
preprocessor to gcc (this time the GNU C Compiler) and lacks
currently an actual documentation and a real home page (see
http://ooc.sourceforge.net/) although there is
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ooc/. Still it is
supported by Michael van Ackeren, Stewart Greenhill
and others on their mailing lists (https://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=3539).

yes, afaik it works with Mono

There is also Chris Burrows Cpide for GPCP (which I did not find
the recently to test under Linux/Mono) ist home page is here
http://www.cfbsoftware.com/cpide/ but momentarily unreachable,
but you can find it also here:
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Programming/File-Editors/CPIde.shtml

not to my knowledge.
