An example:

<?
  $MyVar  = "Contents";
  $$MyVar = "Will it work?";
  echo "\$Contents = $Contents\n";
?>

This will echo

$Contents = Will it work?

Sure,

$MyVar = "Contents";

$$MyVar  equals  $Contents.

Taken from the Manual, Language Reference (which everyone should read first
=8),
Chapter 7: Variables / Variable Variables
