As long as they've got a compiler, it should be possible. First, write a CGI script that will do a qx// on whatever you send it and send you back the results (and password protect it!). Make sure you can see STDERR too.

Now do a few tests to make sure it's running things as your UID (most CGI servers are set to suidexec your scripts) and that you can view your home directory. Now upload the DBD-SQLite tar-ball. Then issue the magic command:

cd ~ && tar zxvf DBD-SQLite*gz && cd DBD-SQLite* && perl Makefile.P +L PREFIX=~ && make install;

If all goes well you should have a compiled copy of DBD::SQLite in ~/lib.
