If your first CGI is modular, e.g. it has a sub you can call that produces results, you could add a "1;" to the end of the script, then require it into your first CGI and call the sub. Or you can wrap the body of the script into a sub and then require/import and call your sub.

For example, I had a few small scripts where I wrapped them in a sub something like:

#!perl -wT
use strict;
use CGI;
# use more modules;

&mysub1();
exit 0;

sub mysub1 {
# the body of the script
}
1;

and then used CGI::Application to call the wrapped methods as run modes. If you can't install CGI::Application, you should still be able to require/import the scripts and call the methods directly.
