Then it looks like you'll want something like:

    (defun my-init-perl-mode ()
      (setq perl-indent-level 2
            perl-continued-statement-offset 2
            perl-continued-brace-offset -2))

    (eval-after-load 'perl-mode
      '(add-hook 'perl-mode-hook #'my-init-perl-mode))

See `C-h f perl-mode RET' for more information on those, and other,
options. I based the above on the "LW" style (the default) with every 4
replaced by a 2.
