    No it's not, HTTP points to a ip adres, the ip adres can have virtual
    hosts, it cannot send the request to pc1.my.domain.com if that matches
    or to pc2.my.domain.com

    This can be done if you use a Reversed Proxy or an Gateway which can
    make the decision to send it to host x when the HTTP/1.1 request is
    Host: host x
