No, this would be a security risk. If  all your users are on an intranet,
you may be able to implement some kind of client-side scripting to discover
the location, then post it as part of the form. Even this will probably
involve amending local security settings on each machine.

What do you need it for? Perhaps there is another way to solve this problem?
