I have a web database application in ASP. One of my clients is interested in having this application on her web site. The problem is her web hosting plan doesn't support ASP. It only supports CGI-BIN scripts. Is there a way that I could convert my web database application in ASP to Perl quickly? If so, how can I accomplish this? I don't know Perl.

There is no simple way to do that.

Also Pearl is very old hat these days and doesn't run particully well when compared with ASP, ASP.NET, PHP, etc.

I would try to talk your client into changing to a web host that supports one of these newer technologies.
