It is possible if you run the code first through ERB and then through
PHP or vice versa.
How slow it will be depends on your deployment type - i.e. whether do
you run PHP and/or Ruby as CGI, mod_ruby, using mongrel etc.
If mod_php allows you to define a post_request filter, that might
help. Or you could create a subrequest to php, and than process its
output.
I see a maintainability problem here - two languages intermixed.
The easier way would be to separate all the php or ruby stuff to a
separate webservice/subpage, and include its output to the main page.
...and if you want to really inter-mix ruby and php, that would be a
nightmare 
as in:
<% 1..2.each do |i| %>

Try using SSI for the php code.

I've been thinking about this as well lately.
Since Rails is overkill for a lot of little things, it would be nice if ERb had more ability.
ERb lacks some of the functionality and flexibility of embedded php.
With php you can just include a file, but ERb doesn't let you do that (AFAIK).

SSI works super, but I have such problem:
I want to include in html-file some php-code one of counter-systems
written on PHP.
By using SSI, I must write php-code to some php-file and when this php
will be included, php-script don't know about html-file, about first
request uri.
For counter-system it's bad variant.

Look at Ramaze or Nitro. Or IOWA or Cerise. Or Merb. Or Camping.
Or roll your own.

It might be possible to use ERb (Ruby) to insert the PHP.

Depends on the server. It's ugly, maybe a little slower, but probably possible.

Not quite when you want the included file to have ERB commands in it:
C:\>type main.erb
<%=$foo%>
<%=IO.read('inc.erb')%>
C:\>type inc.erb
<%=$foo%>
C:\>irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'erb'
irb(main):002:0> $foo = 'Hello World'
irb(main):003:0> ERB.new( IO.read( 'main.erb' ) ).run
Hello World
<%=$foo%>

How can I use ERB for processig PHP-code? ERB parse only Ruby-code. Or
not?

That's OK I guess, but it's not as graceful as usual Ruby things.
I guess I'm going to look into Camping and those others.
I checked out the Merb site once but it was all RDoc with no solid examples.
CGI is just too ugly, it might as well be Perl for that, I wish DreamHost would run mod_ruby...
I'm just finding that Rails is just way more than what I want or need. Lots of cool stuff in it, but the problem is that there is just so much there. Getting started is easy enough, but things start to grind down to a crawl as you beginning unravelling all the details. It's like any big framework, it's highly productive and useful AFTER you've spent months learning it. There's definitely a learning curve and things start to get pretty complicated pretty quickly.
It's too bad that ERb itself isn't better tutorialized.

You can of course make it more graceful:
def erb_include(path, b = nil)
b = binding unless b
ERB.new(IO.read(path)).result(b)
end
<%= erb_include("file.erb") %>
It's still a bit icky w/ local vars 
[But that's part of the reason I
don't like templating like this anyway]

I agree, though you can pretty it up somewhat (as is pointed out
elsewhere in this thread).
I guess I'm going to look into Camping and those others.
I've not yet decided if my head is twisted enough to survive being
wrapped around one of _why's frameworks.
