Does Free Pascal or any of the included packages have a way to create a

Only a script interpreter could possibly create a Type at runtime.
AFAIK, there is a Pascal script interpreter usable with fpc. And in a
script I don't think this is a bad idea (but I am not an expert with
scripts).
Or possibly building the source for a dll/so on the fly. However the
entire custom class would have to be hidden in the library, i.e.
couldn't be exposed by the interface since this would have to be known
when the main program was compiled.
