Of course you can, but I think choosing between various languages mostly ends up being a matter of taste. I tried PHP, built a rather large website using it and found out I didn't like reading my own code after a while - a problem I have not encountered yet using python. I don't think this kind of article should be taken as a list of reasons that make python better than PHP, just as a reminder that maybe you could have a look at python if you do not enjoy writing your code in PHP.
