You can't do that as far as I know.
The most straightforward approach to getting something similar would be using an array with string indices, for example:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. values["test1"] = 100;
  2. values["test2"] = 300;
  3.  
  4. setValue("test1",300);
  5.  
Where the setValue()-function would be this:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. function setValue($target,$value) {
  2. //perform value validation and processing, if needed, here
  3. $values[$target] = $value;
  4. }
  5.
