You should be able to install perl modules under $HOME and add the 
path to PERL5LIB in the htaccess file. You will have problems building 
them without a shell unless you have access to a compatible system to 
your hosting provider. libyaz and Net::Z3950 will be especially 
tricky.

If you are installing without root, I believe that you can use the 
koha 2.0 installer if you have a shell and two virtual hosts. I think 
it should be possible with one virtual host, but it needs some code 
changes. The opac user can be your normal user if it must, I think.

If you do succeed with this, please publish how.
