Yep, you can actually set PREFIX or INSTALL_BASE upon the call to `perl Makefile.PL' (for modules using ExtUtils::MakeMaker) or `perl Build.PL' (for those using Module::Build.) In fact, this is exactly what the local::lib[0] module does. See its documentation, particularly the bootstraping technique. You can install it straight without using the CPAN client.
