Can high blood pressure be a symptom of some chemical inhalation?

Yes: Blood pressure can go up from experiencing stress and also from an allergic reaction as the chemical histamine causes vascular permeability which can cause high blood pressure.

Yes: Many chemicals can cause an increase in blood pressure. The good news is that once exposure to the chemical stops, blood pressure should improve!
