Is the word Sabbatical a derivative of the Pagan word Sabbat?

There are multiple and conflicting theories on the origin of the word Sabbatical. It relates to both the Latin Sabbat and the Hebrew Shabbath, both of which can refer to the sixth day of the week, a day of rest, a time period recurring in sevens, or on every seventh (day, month, year, etc), and the ceasing of something. If you mean Pagan in the sense of non-Christian usage, then yes it is a derivative of a pagan term.
