Most webpages are already GUIs. That is, you basically would use HTML, perhaps peppered with some images and javascript, to provide an interface to the user. PHP can be used to send all these things to the browser, so in a roundabout way the answer is yes, you can use PHP for GUIs.

Really, just about all webpages that aren't flash have HTML GUIs. If you've never done user interactivity before, look at the <form> element as your starting point.
