At least the server has to act as a kind of broker for the clients to
enable connections between them - and this is where PHP may be involved.
Of course you can also use Node.js on the server side as well, if you
prefer JavaScript on the server.

Node.js is the way to go, I think.

I have made a lot of multiplayer/chat software in different languages 
serverside (ASP/VBScript, Perl, Java, and PHP).
And they all had their issues, except Java, but Java can be a hard 
language to work with.

When I started developing a HTML5 multiplayergame in node.js, I was 
surprised: It is very good at these kind of tasks.

The socket.io lib in nodejs makes your life easy.
With socket.io lib you can easily create custom "events" and let the 
server call them at a client, and vise versa.
The same call passes complete objects too, if desired.

just my 2 cent.
