would it be incorrect to, instead of doing a I-V-I progression as the cadence, to do a I-IV-V-I as a PAC or can a PAC only be approached by a I chord?

Review the excellent examples handed out in class from Salzer and Schacters book Counterpoint in Composition. Use the cantus firmi to write your own fourth species melody.
