Im not sure this is even possible. Can someone using powerpoint on a terminal, interact with a website, so whenever he goes to the next slide in the pp presentation, the same will happen for anyone browsing the corresponding website. (they would get forwarded to a corresponding webpage)
 
I suppose if PowerPoint could change a database, and the webpage used a timer and AJAX to get the current page from the database, and if it was a different page to change to the proper page - then yes. But this isn't so much PHP, as JavaScript - though PHP could be the AJAX backend.

Though I've never done any PowerPoint to database, so I don't know how possible that is.
 
You might want to look into some web conferencing software like Live Meeting from Microsoft that is specifically designed to do exactly that.
