~/.p4enviro isn't an executable. The permission error is because it doesn't have the +x permission bit set. You can set it with chmod +x ~/.p4enviro but it still won't do anything useful when you try to run it.

The P4ENVIRO file (default ~/.p4enviro) is used as a configuration store for the p4 set command: https://www.perforce.com/manuals/cmdref/Content/CmdRef/p4_set.html
