No.
PHP runs before the browser/javascript does.
Having php determine if the browser has js enabled means
communication from the browser back to the script.
You could do this communication via ajax. Namely, have php prepare a
web page, have the web page determine if js in enabled and then
communicate back to a php script to continue your second script.
However, if js is not enabled, then your second script will never
hear back from the browser.
