Hi,
If you mean an effect like this
http://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetFeatureInfo&BBOX=-11.332970,24.121208,47.584718,57.965035&SRS=EPSG:4326&WIDTH=1001&HEIGHT=575&LAYERS=cities&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&TRANSPARENT=true&QUERY_LAYERS=cities&INFO_FORMAT=text/plain&X=229&Y=280
vs.
http://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetFeatureInfo&BBOX=-11.332970,24.121208,47.584718,57.965035&SRS=EPSG:4326&WIDTH=1001&HEIGHT=575&LAYERS=cities&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&TRANSPARENT=true&QUERY_LAYERS=cities&INFO_FORMAT=text/html&X=229&Y=280
then yes, it is possible

Not that I know of. In fact you should probably check the WMS spec on
the OGC site to see if that is allowed by the standard (my guess is no).
I do know that the MapServer support for GetFeatureInfo requests is
documented in the "Configuring for GetFeatureInfo Requests" section of
http://www.mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html
Of course, I've been wrong many times before, so someone can correct me
if I am wrong here :)
