You can, using some web framework crates, but PHP is many many years ahead from Rust in making web apps. And I'm not sure if its the right language for the web. You'd probably be fighting with the borrow checker and type system most of the time while the php dev is busy cranking out new features for his/her web app. There is also the problem of compiling huge websites.
