php: writing a script function

I have a very simple question about php. In PHP, can we have script function, javascript or any other script in php section without script tag. Something like this:

<?php
    function javascript_or_any_other_script_function() {
    }
?>

I am aware that the question is pretty naive (almost silly) but I wanted to see whether php supports this syntax.

Thanks in advance,

PHP is in the server, JavaScript is in the browser...

To get JavaScript in client(browser), you need to output it in php...

function javascript_function() {

return 'function foo() {alert("working");}';

}

print('<script>');
print( javascript_function() );
print('</script>')
