Sending HTML to a browser

What happends if a server send a response to an known IP without first the browser sending a request? Is that possible?

Or must a browser send a request first. I'm talking about a situation where the server has already started a session with a particular browser. Can the server send anything to the browser at anytime since it knows the browser's IP and is already in session with it?

It would be like sending one page then in 1 minute send another without the browser refreshing or the user doing any activity.

Has anyone ever done something like this? Is it possible?
