Yes, you can install it locally and then make sure the installation
directory comes before site-packages in sys.path (e.g. by adding it to
PYTHONPATH, or by manipulating sys.path in settings.py).

If you install it in DIR, you may want to add both DIR and DIR/PIL to
the path to make sure that both import Image and from PIL import
Image works properly (if you always use the latter form, you only
need DIR in the path).
