Can I wear dress pants (suit pants) casually without Jacket?
I would like to buy separate suit pants to wear casually without jacket (not to ruin my suit pants). Is that a good idea? If yes what are the versatile colors? How to outfit?

I guess you could but idk why you would want to
Do you just mean wool trousers in general? Can you share some pictures of what you're talking about?
i mean they're pants so yeah
why wear a suit pant over some other trouser (wool, chino, flannel, etc.)?
If you just mean wool trousers with a front pleat yeah you can. I’m wearing a pair today.
If they are separate pants (i.e. not part of a suit), I guess it's like wearing pants with formal tailoring... it does work, just need to pair them well with top part.
It is thin wool pants. for me I feel comfort in them more than chino and flannel. May be because of using suit for some time.
I think to get one to wear with light Knitwear or Shirt instead of complete suit.
For colors I think to get one in Navy Color or Grey.
Can you link the pants?
I think what folks are saying here is there is no reason to buy "suit pants" when you can just buy standalone wool trousers

there's nothing wrong with using a suit pant as a pant - i do this - but in your case there might be more effective options
uniqlo's has lightweight pants, similar to a suit pant but less expensive and machine washable https://www.uniqlo.com/us/en/products/E462197-000/00?colorDisplayCode=69&sizeDisplayCode=003

I would say go for it if you find orphaned suit pants secondhand or the perfect pair of wool pants that happen to be suit pants
But you have options outside of solely suit pants for wool trousers, if that makes sense
The suitsupply ones are okay - I don't love the cut personally but they are fine to wear
