Something like this (if I understood you correctly):

Markup:

<asp:Repeater id="myRepeater" OnItemDataBound="myRepeater_ItemDataBound" runat="server">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <div id="myDiv" runat="server">......</div>
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

Code-behind:

protected void myRepeater_ItemDataBound(object sender, RepeaterItemEventArgs e)
{
    if(e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item || e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem)
    {
        HtmlGenericControl myDiv = e.Item.FindControl("myDiv") as HtmlGenericControl;
        // you can just pass "this" instead of "myDiv.ClientID" and get the ID from the DOM element
        myDiv.Attributes.Add("onmouseover", "doStuff('" + myDiv.ClientID + "');");
    }
}
