...or will the catalytic converter (I think that's the right term) stop that?

You can get carbon monoxide poisoning from any vehicle. The catalytic convertors job is to reduce hydrocarbons, CO, and NOx. But it does not totally remove it.
The ideal gases that you want to exit into the atmosphere via your tailpipe is low CO2 and H2O.

I agree with the other responses you can get carbon monoxide from a 88 Crown Vic. The catalytic converter does not stop the CO gas.

Yes you can and will get poisoned if you get an exhaust leak before to cat. On some ford you have a exhaust transfer pipe at the rear of the cylinder heads which was designed to allow your smog/air pump to ingest clean air in to help with pollution control. I would check that pipe very close for leaks.
