Is there some possibility to use Delphi xe7 form in Delphi 7 project, without create DLL file? I found "Monkey-Mixer" which allows to use FMX form in VCL project, and I wonder is there same tool for use new VCL forms in older versions of Delphi?

No there is not. You cannot link code from different versions of Delphi into the same executable.

If you were willing to invest the time, is it theoretically possible to use {$IF Defined(D7)} and {$IF Defined(XE7)} to enclose bits of the form code incompatible between versions? Minor changes in the form code might leave it compilable in both IDEs. Just a thought...
@AlainD I don't think you've quite understood what the asker is asking. He wants to build/link XE7 code in D7.
Yes, you're right. Still, I was wondering whether it was possible to create two similar forms (one generating a DFM, the other a FMX, both generating a PAS), and sort of "refactor" the PAS into a common "super"-PAS file with conditional compilation. The effort-to-benefit ratio is all wrong, but even so...surely it could work?
