On POSIX systems you may set environment variable TZ and then maybe call
system's `/bin/date` from perl or call POSIX::tzset(). I don't know
whether this works in a non-POSIX system, like yours. perldoc POSIX.
perl -MPOSIX -le '$ENV{TZ} = "Asia/Tokyo"; POSIX::tzset; print scalar localtime'
In any case, it is always possible to implement your own calculations.
Timezone is just an offset of M minutes (usually whole hours) from the
Greenwich time. CPAN has many answers too.
