Normally the way you do something like this is to call a method on an
object reference. The method is looked up at run time, so by varying the
object reference, you get a different method. The package the method is
defined in can be require'd at run time, making the whole thing as dynamic
as you like.

I know this doesn't answer the question you asked, but if you tell us the
problem you are trying to solve, maybe we can tell you a way of
accomplishing it without fighting Perl.
