And I don't mean just by embedding javascript I mean is there a way to do any type of mouse event listening just with php?

You can not monitor user events on the server. You can put onclick event handlers throughout the page if you would like then submit the form back to the server.

No.
Because PHP resides on the server and mouse click event is a client side event. You will have to use JavaScript to listen this even. And then u can send request to a php file to do whatever u want on this even.

PHP can be used to write desktop programs but there is no event handling in the language. That's what you need to monitor clicks.

No, not purely PHP, JavaScript has to be there alongside.
