Is it possible to include PHP code that is in memory?

Say I have a variable containing PHP code, can I include its content as if it was a normal PHP file ?

For example, the PHP code could be a class declaration.

You don't have a variable containing php code. You have a string. You can execute a string as php with the evil eval function, but puppies AND kittens will die!

You could use eval to evaluate any code that you have in your string, however it is evil. What exactly are you trying to do?

eval($your_variable);

Be aware about security holes!This is very dangerous and should NOT be based on user's input !
