I would like to add the user-meta 'nickname' field to a post form as a select field. How can I do that?

Hello,

It is possible with custom codes, see the solution of below thread:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/dropdown-that-shows-all-users/#post-590063

Above codes are based on wpt_field_options filter hook, see our document:
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/types-api-filters/#wpt_field_options

For your reference.

One more question - is there a way to exclude users from the select field - say only show users in specific permission levels?

In your custom PHP codes, you can specific user roles in function get_users(), see WP document:

So I cannot do this from within toolset?

As I mentioned above, there isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset plugins, it needs the custom codes, see the example I mentioned above:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/dropdown-that-shows-all-users/#post-590063

Above example is using WordPress built-in function get_users() to retrieve user lists
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_users/

You can customize the parameters of function get_users() manually:
