I do not think this is possible. It is a bit like asking 'how do I connect to the internet without a computer?'. Well, you can use one of those internet enabled phones (essentially a computer, but in disguise), or visit a cyber cafe.

So you could have web server a connect to web server b, which has an oracle client on it to talk to an oracle database.

Even ODBC and OLE need the Oracle Client install, although you do not need a *complete* client install - just SQL*Net.

Yuo must have Oracle client installed. The following link can help you:

however if i does not mistake, exist a privider called OracleDirect that takes advantage of OCI and that perhaps it does not demand the client oracle. go to the following link:
