I'm sure this can be done. 

I know about mod_proxy and mod_proxy_html and it's functions as a
reverse proxy. But the thing is my current understanding of these
mod_proxy is it's suitable only for servers which are in the internal
network and has names such as

www.example.com -> external IP
internalserver.example.com -> NAT IP

external -> internalserver
www.example.com/internalserver (using mod_proxy and mod_proxy_html)

what if the NAT IP'ed server has it's own DNS? say www.example2.com.
Can apache still be used to get to it? using Mod_proxy?

I'm just trying to figure out if this is a valid scenerio.
