Yes, its possible. However, the http command has been removed from
3.0.X since there is a better http client side implementation in the
Tcl core. On the http server side, there is a httpd written in Tcl
available from Scriptics.

The Tcl http server from Scriptics can be used together with the
scotty package. I have seen a neat demo on one of the Tcl workshops
where showed SNMP information in a Web browser collected by the Tcl
http server.
