Do you mean can it output an html form to a browser, process it on submit and return
html to the browser?
Sure can.
You simply have it print html code:
print '<html><body><h1>Hello Suckers</h1></body></html>';
You'll also need the proper headers.
I'd say look at the CGI module at search.cpan.org
It will help you greatly in form processing and output:
use warnings;
use strict;
use CGI qw(:standard);
print header();
if(param('action') =~ 'process') { print proc(); }
else { print mainpg(); }
sub proc {...
sub mainpg {...
Now if you're talking about reading a file and writing a file that can be done also.
perldoc -f open
perldoc File::Slurp
