That's not that simple.
You could make .htpasswd files on the fly, but that's hardly preferable, as
you'll have to create, maintain and verify the file on every change in
users.
What I'd do:
create a .htaccess file:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !^accesscontrol.php
RewriteRule ^(.*?)$ accesscontrol.php?file=$i&%{QUERY_STRING} [NC,L]
And handle authentication in accesscontrol.php, and possibly include the
requested files, or give a Unauthorised header.
