It's been my observation that your average Perl programmer can pick up
PHP rather quickly, but that relation doesn't usually work the other way.

Having code in two separate languages is a concern if you believe that
it's harder to find people the know both or that you have to hire
separate Perl and PHP people. I personally don't believe that's the case
if you have Perl people to start with.
