 <p>No. Section 9.6 on <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt" rel="nofollow noreferrer">RFC 2616</a> states that the URI is of the resource to be put, and the web server <em>must not</em> use it towards any other resource. So, while technically you may be able to construct a server process/script that would, you should not depend on any server allowing that.</p>
