Scenario : there is a java class as given below : 
public class TestSelenium {
    public void googleTest() throws Exception {     
       WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
       driver.get("http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=1&hl=en");
    }
}

There is a perl program which makes use of Inline::Java module to call the googleTest of java class written above. Perl program looks like. 
use warnings;
use Selenium::Remote::Driver;

use Inline Java => 'STUDY',

CLASSPATH => 'C:\selenium\selenium-java-2.37.0\selenium-2.37.0\libs\se
+lenium-java-2.37.0.jar;C:\selenium\SeleniumTestPoc\bin\MyJar.jar;C:\s
+elenium\selenium-java-2.37.0\selenium-2.37.0\libs\selenium-server-sta
+ndalone-2.37.0.jar',

STUDY => ['TestSelenium'];

$test= TestSelenium->new;

$test->googleTest;

Now the above Perl code will open IExplorer and go to google.com page. In my Perl program further to $test->googleTest; I want to make use of same browser that was opened by java(WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();) and perform a search for text "Cheese".

Question is, can the object of WebDriver class("driver" in this case) be further used in my Perl program so that I can use same browser and perform different UI operations on it in Perl?
