Sure.
Get a web server from somewhere.
Xitami is free and easiest to install. http://www.imatix.com
Alternatives PWS from Microsoft or Apache from www.apache.org
Apache is probably the most useful server to get to know, but setup is
trickiest.
Download the PHP installer from www.php.net/downloads
If you need a database download MySQL from www.mysql.com
Enjoy.
