Yes.

Two main ways:
A. Compute something in Makefile.PL before calling WriteMakefile
and adjust args passed to that so that vars end up the way you want.
In this case it means adding something to
LIBS =>
passed in. (This is what Tk does - it is well behaved for once.)
B. A MY::something which messes with the data structures via the
object passed to it as 1st arg.
In this case it needs to be something at or before const_loadlibs
so this would work.
package MY;
sub const_loadlibs
{
my ($self,@args) = @_;
# diddle with $self - you have to poke about in real const_loadlibs
# do find out where things are.
return $self->SUPER::const_loadlibs(@args);
}
