Yes, but not everyone has access to their webserver's error log file... (think accounts on most hosting providers)

    Then create your own logfile. Something like: 
    BEGIN {
    open STDERR, ">>/home/myowndir/errorlogs.txt";
}

      Or to keep the nice CGI::Carp formatting for logged errors: 
      BEGIN {
    use CGI::Carp qw(carpout);
    my $fn = "/home/joeschmoe/logs/foo_log";
    open my $fh, ">>", $fn
        or die "Unable to open $fn for appending: $!\n";
    carpout($fh);
}
