Unfortunately, no. You'd get the offset you want, but you can only use
constants in inline assembler, and I don't think delphi or freepascal
will consider your previous line to be a valid constant.
So you'd need to write some code to determine all your offsets and then
set up constants for them all.

Bugger - especially as their x86 BASM syntax already supports the
structure member offset extension. And from the (somewhat terse)
freepascal documentation, I don't think there is an equivalent in AT&T
syntax.
What kind of error messages are you getting? In 64-bit assembler, all
the registers commonly have different names (e.g. rax as opposed to to
eax). Maybe their assembler is fussy about that sort of thing?
Is the x86_64 not support intel syntax a known limitation of freepascal?
It's not mentioned on the site anywhere I can see.
Cheers,
Paul.
