The answer is yes, but it is not a simple thing to do. PL/SQL is a language to manipulate things within the database. For writing things out to CSV files, one should generally not use PL/SQL. You might want to try Java, which is simpler to load into the database then Perl. Maybe, if you provided us with some more details, we would be able to give you some more information.
