You can achieve something similar without modules a couple of ways: 

@a = 'A'..'J'; 
for my $r ( map { k=> $_, v=> $a[ $_ ] }, 0 .. $#a ) { 
    print "@{ $r }{ k, v }\n" 
}

0 A
1 B
2 C
3 D
4 E
5 F
6 G
7 H
8 I
9 J

Or

@a = 'A'..'J'; 
for my $r ( map [ $_, $a[ $_ ] ], 0 .. $#a ) { 
    print "$r->[0]:$r->[1]\n" 
}
0:A
1:B
2:C
3:D
4:E
5:F
6:G
7:H
8:I
9:J
