Can PHP set it ini file at runtime?

Is there any method to change php's config when it's running? My business requirement is on FunctionA start turn up it's max_execution_time and on FunctionA finish turn down it.

Yes:

<?php
    function functionA ()
    {
      if (!ini_get('max_execution_time') || ini_get('max_execution_time') != 3000)
      {
        ini_set('max_execution_time', 3000); //300 seconds = 5 minutes
      }
      // Do some things....
    }

    echo ini_get('max_execution_time'); // We return system default

    functionA ();

    echo ini_get('max_execution_time'); will return 3000

Beware that some host disable this ability. If thats the case and it is still needed you will need to contact your host to enable it or move hosting companies.
