This is AJAX functionality.  You can do it, and the included JQuery library will make the job quite easy.  You should read up on JQuery’s AJAX functions.  http://docs.jquery.com/Tutorials

The action that you use with your AJAX call should return the new content that you want to put in your portlet.

You need jquery because you probably wanna use some library to support you with AJAX. If you are bored you can use your own javascript of course.

You can use jquery to do something like this

$('#element').load('/path/to/your/controller/action') which is gonna load the output of your specified controller action into the specified element. Read up on the jquery docs and you'll find it to be really, really easy to handle
