Well no, considering it requires a socket to connect to a web-server, without which, you have nothing but air.
However, there is a Tcl package that provides a tidy interface, to save you writting the socket code yourself.
See the Tcl manual, for the http package.

False?
What do you mean. The HTTP package does work.
It requires a TCP/IP connection to a HTTP server, to serve webpages. Thus, regardless of what your friend claims, there is a socket connection needed.

hehe im sitting here laughing my ass off
just like ppslim said, you need sockets to connect to any/everything.
maybe you friend is calling an external app to do the job?
photon?
