Installing components

is there a way to use Plesk to install additional server components? Such as perl mods or php etc?
 
Plesk isn't designed to handle the system administration on that level. It does handle dependancies, but not updating and management of your system to ensure you have the components you want. If an update to Plesk requires mod_perl be updated, or php be upgrade, it'll do so automatically.

However, to install new components that are not requirements of the system, no.
