Of course. With Ajax you can retrieve whatever information you want from the server (and just the information you want) in order to effect each successive "frame" of the slideshow. For example, if the slideshow is a series of images, you can use Ajax to retrieve the URL of each successive image based upon a set interval. (If the # of image URLs is not large, Ajax may be overkill and you could just have the list of URLs in an array).

Without further details regarding the nature of the slideshow elements, it's hard to go into more detail.
