Of course you can. Just add a third/fourth level subdomain and put
your stuff under this. E.g. I have a domain example.de registered to
me, resolving from-da-induhned. With hosts such as
{www,mail}.example.de and example.de redirected to www.
Now then, internally, I chose hostnames. And then use those, not
resolvable via DNS, via /etc/hosts and dnsmasq. From my /etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 ${hostname}.example.de ${hostname} localhost
127.0.0.1 news.${hostname}.example.de news
127.0.0.2 docs.${hostname}.example.de docs docs.example.de
127.0.0.3 www.${hostname}.example.de www
127.0.0.1 irc.${hostname}.example.de irc
127.0.0.1 ftp.${hostname}.example.de ftp
So, just replace example.de by ${yourprefix}.me.uk and have fun, and
use ${hostname}.${yourprefix}.me.uk, www.${hostname}.${yourprefix}.me.uk.
