Use the tokenizer instead of regular expressions:

$input = '<?php some code ?> TEXT1 <?php some code {?> TEXT2 <?php }some code?>';

$tokens = token_get_all($input);
foreach ($tokens as $token) {
   if ($token[0] == T_INLINE_HTML) {
       echo $token[1];
   }
}

Output:

 TEXT1  TEXT2

It is possible, as you can use file_get_contents() on the php file and it will return the raw contents without parsing the PHP. As for the regex, I'd recommend the regex cheatsheet by dave child at addedbytes.com. http://www.addedbytes.com/cheat-sheets/regular-expressions-cheat-sheet/ That should help you piece together a regex for your problem.
