Any package that provides httpd-cgi will do the trick. Install the
package php5-cgi, and you're basically done. Just use CGI scripts with
the headers:

#!/usr/bin/php

(Not sure what extra switch is needed, if at all. Too lazy to search
right now).

However, why do you want to use PHP as CGI and not as a more efficient
option?
