Most web-hosting companies will let you run cgi scripts at your site, but
with what version of Perl, and with which modules is beyond your
control. They usually won't give you a shell, so it's quite slow and
annoying to work with.
If I were you I'd install BSD or Linux on a spare machine and use it for
development. You can also install it in VMWare on your normal
workstation, but that takes a pretty hefty machine, and VMWare isn't
cheap at all.
Hope this helps, have a nice day
