Is it possible to create banner with php (GD) code from jpeg pictures?
I don't remember I've read something similar.

Yah, read up on the
image functions, as for example
imagecreatefromjpeg.
I'm using it myself in my avatar, with the blueish background.

That wont be happening. Animated gifs is not supported. I havn't seen it happen yet that is, but I wouldn't be very surprised if someone brilliant have made it happen by hacking the source of an animated gif trying to recreate it somehow. But I wouldn't hold my breath, sorry.
There are flash animations tho, that can be created on-the-fly, that might be of interest. There are alot of con's against that tho but I thought I'd mention it at least.

Again, I had in the back of my mind that I've read something about it before, but I didn't belive myself enough...

Check this first before venturing in to the area of flash animations. Imagemagick have some requirements, and only you know if you have access to it (depending on the host's setup etc.).
