Yes, that's possible.  Assuming you have a php CGI, you would use:

  /path/to/php -q /path/to/yourscript.php  arg1 arg2 arg3 ...

This will run yourscript.php at the command line, and the args will be
available in the $_SERVER["argv"] array.  The first item in this array
is the name of the script itself.  The -q option is to suppress output
of the CGI headers.
