You can do something like:

<Location /myapp>
         SetHandler perl-script
         PerlResponseHandler MyApp
</Location>

Alias /myapp/static /path/to/myapp/root/static
<Directory "/path/to/myapp/root/static">
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
</Directory>
<Location /myapp/static>
         SetHandler default-handler
</Location>
