Suppose, we have opened EURUSD chart (M1) and placed two Moving Average indicators with different parameters on this chart, my task is to write strategy which is responsible to determine the indicator over which the mouse cursor is moved. For the simplicity: user moves the mouse cursor and strategy prints the Indicator info if the mouse cursor is placed over the indicator's curve.

There is no mouse listener for indicators, but there is one for charts:
https://www.dukascopy.com/wiki/#Chart_Operations/Add_mouse_listener
And from the mouse event you can get both price and time coordinates, see:
https://www.dukascopy.com/client/javadoc/com/dukascopy/api/chart/mouse/IChartPanelMouseEvent.html
Thus you could compare those coordinates to indicator values that you would calculate also in your strategy and determine if the mouse cursor is on an indicator line or close to it.

Chart Panel is the separate panel for indicators such as RSI, Stochastic. But can I get this for Panel with instrument prices, where such indicators are deployed as TrendEnvelopes, SAR?

From API standpoint also the main chart (IChart) is a chart panel (IChartPanel), thus you can add a mouse listener to it.
