Is it possible to combine PHP and CSS to achieve the desired text truncation with ellipsis (...) at the end?

Yes, it is possible to combine PHP and CSS to achieve text truncation with ellipsis at the end. To do this, you can use PHP to limit the number of characters in the text and then add CSS to display the ellipsis. Here is a PHP code snippet that implements this solution: 

<?php
$text = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.";

$max_length = 50;

if (strlen($text) > $max_length) {
    $truncated_text = substr($text, 0, $max_length) . '...';
} else {
    $truncated_text = $text;
}

echo '<div class="truncate">' . $truncated_text . '</div>';
?>
```

And here is the corresponding CSS code:

```css
.truncate {
    white-space: nowrap;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
