So, uh, this depends. The couple of times I went through the process of working for a "client" (in quotes because it was in school, and was an exercise they did trying to teach us about freelancing) it was handled two ways - client finds you and says "I need a program that takes this information and processes it to create that output" or, client finds you and says "I need you to create a program that does this, and it must be written in X language."
In the first way, you pick the language your write it in, assuming the language is appropriate for what the program needs to do. In the second way, you HAVE to hand them the finished program in whatever language they asked for (php and Java in this case). If the project you accepted was presented to you in the second way, you really can't writ it in perl. Now, it IS possible, sometimes, to write a program in one language whose primary output is the files of another language - this really only works with scripting languages (this is how CMS systems like wordpress or drupal work, they and their themes are written in php, and the themes especially, primary purpose is to create the html necessary for a web page to be viewed), BUT, unless there is a module that is able to do the syntax translation, you'll still need to know php and Java, to be able to tell perl what to print to those output files.
