You can do it as illustrated below. However, note that for a random
input matrix it does not work in PARI (as you seem to think it
should), as illustrated below:
sage: M=random_matrix(IntegerModRing(10),3,3)
sage: b = pari(M)
sage: b.matadjoint()

PariError Traceback (most recent call last)
CODE:
sage[2]=matadjoint(sage[1]);
GP/PARI ERROR:
*** matadjoint: impossible inverse modulo: Mod(8, 10).
