No, it can't. PHP is a *serverside* language, while opening a new window 
is fully *clientside*. You could, after recieving the form submission, 
send back a redirect which opens in a new window; but far easier would 
be to use javascript which would open a new window on submission instead.

PHP is definitly the wrong choice for things like opening browser windows.
