   Is there some wya I can have emacs do this even when the matching
   delimiter is on the screen?

   At present I am using a simple workaround by trying to remember to
   move the current line to the top of the screen and then typing the
   closing delimiter.  This works but I still have problems when I am
   trying to match parenthesis appearing on the same line.

I think it does it but it is too fast for you to notice it. However
you can use ESC C-p & ESC C-n to see the matching starting OR
finishing deimiters.
