Oh sure. Some our production NT 4.0SP6a machines (also R5 Domino) use
ActiveState perl, DBI, DBD and a custom Clarify module to speak to Oracle.
It works so well that I had forgotten about it until you mentioned it.

`ppm' or is that `ppd' is your friend. Go execute that from a console and
exec `install DBI' and then whatever DBD is appropriate for you.
