No, you can't do that. Imagine the horrifying possibilities for malware-infested e-books.

Your ability to talk to the outside world from inside e-books is limited to invoking links that will open up in a browser when an anchor tag is tapped.

If you want the kind of functionality you mention, you would need to write your own custom e-book reader which supports that.
