Why the extra quoting?
Your input to mysql would be for example
Code:
UPDATE db.prefix_"config" SET  value =  WHERE  "prefix_"config.name =  'table colname';

I suppose the problem is getting $prefix to expand correctly, because it will try to expand $prefix_config. try using ${prefix}
Code:
UPDATE $dbname.${prefix}config SET  value = '$var' WHERE  ${prefix}config.name =  'table colname';
