I haven't found any answers on this but is it possibile use php in an

}

//////<?=$img_dir?> is a url

Sure -- provided that you use proper PHP syntax (which the above is
not). You'll also likely need to name the file with a .php extension
so the web server parses it as such (it's also possible to configure
your web server to parse .css files through PHP, but I wouldn't go
that route).

You should also (you might even need to) put the following at the top
of the file:

header('Content-type: text/css');
