By default Emacs places TABs wherever it can when indenting lines.
So all you need to do is to make sure that it can always use TABs.
Since a TAB has a width corresponding to 8 characters, it means that you
should configure your major mode (in this case cperl-mode) to align
everything on multiples of 8.  I.e. start by setting cperl-indent-level
to 8.
