Yep, that is what it is called, and you can set that up in your Apache
config files. Look at httpd.conf and commonhttpd.conf for this kind of
setup.

Although there may be several approaches to accomplish this, I would
suggest using the most straightforward and simple approach. Set up a DNS
server, and make the appropriate records in your foward and reverse zone
files. You can have MX records indicate which mail servers handle which
domains (read up on dns setup and administration).
