Anything is possible - you could write a server process that associates
cursors with session IDs and then have your PHP app make requests through
the server.  Would it be a good idea?  Probably not.  Would it qualify as
"practical postgres" usage?  Definitely not!  I'd call it an impractical
idea that might be possible through a lot of hard work.
