You can install PHP with MySQL support using the built-in library without
having MySQL installed first.  It's a better idea (though not necessary) to
install MySQL source and do --with-mysql=/path_to/mysql.  To install PHP
with PostgreSQL support you will need to do --with-pgsql.  --with-mysql
and --with-pgsql will not interfere with each other since the 2 programs are
totally independent and run on different ports so you can definitely compile
PHP with support for both.
