To install, this ought to work  /path/to/perl/bin/cpan Module Module

To install, this ought to work  /opt/perl-version/bin/cpan Module Module

To run your program you can use  /opt/perl-version/bin/perl program.pl

Or have as your shebang (first line in your file) #!/opt/perl-version/bin/perl -- then you can run the file like by typing  /path/to/your/file.pl or ./file.pl

Or prepend these dirs to your $PATH (this program will print them, you export in your shell or .bashrc/.profile as shown below) 

#!/opt/perl-version/bin/perl --
use Config;
for my $bin( @Config{qw/ sitebin vendorbin bin/} ){
    $seen{$bin}++ or print $bin; }
}
__END__
export $PATH=/opt/perl-version/bin;...;...;...;$PATH

then perl yourprogram.pl runs /opt/perl-version/bin/perl yourprogram.pl

then a shebang of #!/usr/bin/env perl -- runs /opt/perl-version/bin/perl yourprogram.pl
