You can do this:

var paypal_mode = "<?= $_SERVER["PAYPAL_MODE"];?>";
alert(paypal_mode);

You need to be sure that you want expose that variable

Well, you could do something like this in your html :

<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
    window.paypal_mode = <?php echo json_encode($_SERVER["PAYPAL_MODE"]); ?>;
});
</script>

And access it through the window object in your javascript file.
