No, you cannot use PHP within JavaScript. Think about it this way: you need a PHP interpreter/runtime to execute the PHP, and browsers do not contain this. Based on your code snippet above, you could instead send an ajax call to a PHP script on the server.

I suppose you could pass PHP code to a server-side script and interpret/execute it, but you'd still need ajax or a full GET/POST request, and it would never be a good thing to do because of how easy it would be for malicious code injection.
