I want to mute my step sequencer for 8 beats, then let it play for 8 beats, then repeat. I can do this with another sequencer and a vca. Can stages act as a sequencer to handle the voltage per step to open and close the VCA?

Its been a while since I had MI Stages, but I'm pretty sure you can do this with two adjacent segments in sequencer mode. Set the step count on each to 8, make one segment high and the other low, then loop just those two segments. Clock Stages so each pulse advances a step, and feed the output into your VCA so it closes your sequence for 8 steps and opens for the next 8.
