Yes you can. What you can do on your webserver (I'm assuming apache) is to configure your directory with the ExecCGI directive in your httpd.conf file.

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi index.html.var <Directory "DIR OF CHOICE"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI AllowOverride none Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>

Then create an index.cgi file that performs to reference the variable $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'} variable within your script. Then utilize that value to perform your task. Lastly, redirect the user to that page. I personally use javascript (because sometimes I refresh multiple iframes or frames) for my redirects, like:

print qq { <script language=javascript> window.open('/dir/$ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}.html','','') </script> };

Hope this helps
