It’s _doable_ but it’s a more advanced setup, only recommended for experienced users: [Run other websites on the same machine as Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/t/running-other-websites-on-the-same-machine-as-discourse/17247).

If you aren’t already familiar with hosting multiple domains and nginx reverse-proxy configuration it’s easier and faster to use another server for it.
