Yes, you can.

For example, if you are using sendmail, Perl code might look something like this:

Code:
open(SENT,"|/usr/lib/sendmail $_");
print SENT <<EOF;
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8BIT
From: tony\@aplawrence.com
Subject: Whatever

(html stuff)

EOF

Or, use the Mail::Sendmail module:

Code:
use Mail::Sendmail;
my %mail =   ( To      => $MailList,
              From    => $LdapUserEmail,
              Subject => $Subject,
              smtp => $taskglobals::smtp,
              'Content-Type' => 'text/html',
              'Content-Transfer-Encoding' => '8BIT',
              Message => $body
            );
sendmail(%mail) or print "ERROR sending mail\n";
