In theory, yes.  In practice, there are some gotchas, and you're not
the first to report problems.  Insufficient information to say more.

What is your intended functionality?  Would mod_publisher or any of
its lesser siblings (http://apache.webthing.com/) do the job for you?

Could be relevant.  Bear in mind that even if you do get it to work,
it'll be a huge overhead.  An ext_filter is an external program
(like CGI with mod_cgi), and will be slow on anything but unix+prefork.
See the discussion on the mod_cgid page for how apache deals with
this in CGI - but there's no equivalent for ext_filter.
