If you're really asking "Can I run Perl CGI scripts on Windows without CGI-capable HTTP web server software?", then answer will be - of course - YES! You have many options here.

  1. You can write your own HTTP web server in Perl from scratch using IO::Socket::INET.
  2. You can use some of already written HTTP server Perl modules from MetaCPAN.
  3. Or you can use web framework from MetaCPAN.org, many of them includes HTTP server (I prefer Mojolicious, it's simple but powerful)
In any case all you need is Perl and MetaCPAN.
