No. A black hole is in some ways just a very compact neutron star; if a normal neutron star was able to implode that far, it would have done so and become a black hole already.

There is a simple law of physics called the Pauli Exclusion Principle which states that no two neutrons can occupy the same quantum state simultaneously this prevents further collapse of neutron stars.

A Neutron Star is an incredibly dense structure left over from the collapse of a large star of between around 1.35 and 2 solar masses (1 solar mass equal to our suns mass). The escape velocity for a neutron star is around a third of the speed of light, so although it has a huge gravitational effect, light can still escape its surface, so it can be seen. A black hole is a remnant from the collapse of a much heavier star, of over ten solar masses.

No, if the Neutron Star were to get any denser, it would turn into a Black Hole.

The densities will be the same. A pulsar and a neutron star are basically the same thing.

Yes. Black holes are the #1 massive object in space and because of that, nothing, not even light, can escape once caught in a black hole's path

Yes. A neutron stars is many orders of magnitude denser than anything you will find on Earth.

Is the density of a pulsar greater than the density of a white dwarf?

The density of a pulsar or neutron star is much greater than that of a white dwarf. A typical (if there is such a thing) neutron star has a density of between 8.4 × 1016 to 1 × 1018 kg/m3 whereas a white dwarf has a density of about 1 × 109 kg/m3
