What do you mean by "server side pop-ups"? If you mean client-side
pop-up windows generated by server-side scripting, then no, you can't.

Sounds like wanting to swim without having to go into the water. The
only way you could do anything like this is to place a target="_blank"
attribute in either an anchor element or a form element and entice the user
to click either the associated link or submit button. Not sure if that will
get you past the pop-up killers, though. And I suspect that this isn't quite
what you, or they, are looking for.
