I'm pretty sure it'll be exactly like 6.2 but go here and scroll down to the "Play as the Papacy" section: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=338401

Yes it is possible, goto the descr_strat file in your mods/ss/data/world/campaigns/imperial_camp folder and copy and paste the papacy to playable factions, don't forget to delete it from teh unplayable as it will cause game to crash as it will get confused as you could be telling it they are both playable and unplayable lol

I done for test. Game crash constant after 10-15 turns.

Make sure you remove one other faction from playable I think. Also, have you read the article containing info on playing as them in a hotseat campaign?

Can you call a crusade if playing as the Papal States, or is it as normal?

Yes, you can No family tree so don't have to worry about losing as to blood line being killed off. You can attack any catholic faction and make them become immediately excommunicated. So, if you want to, you can attack all of them and they will just fight each other, fun to use toggle_fow to see what happens

You can call crusades, but they are not automatically accepted. It depends on your relation with the pope, which is you, which is a paradox, which is why you could almost call it random
