Hi Chris;

Yes it is. I do this at home. However you must run a DNS since Apache
(and other httpd's) need to be able to find hostnames there. 

I run my own domain and IP net. This I keep from the outside world by 
masquerading. So, you see, there is a fair bit of setup to do. I've not
found a simpler way to do this.

Cheers pfb
