Does the FPC support the compilation as a background service? If so,
what are the compiler options that will allow me to do this. If not,
is there a way to write a program that doesn't display anything, not
even a console?

no relation with compiler switch. You will need the console, so you
can't get rid of that when writing services. If you don't want to
display the console, add {$apptype gui} in the program file.
