Sure. Check out PHP's exec() function. It lets you drop into the background and execute / run shell commands. In your case, you would want to run a php file. This will execute it in the background while your normal page can go on.

function.exec()

ex.

Code:

exec(escapeshellcmd("php path/to/file -s"))
