If these requirements are fulfilled, you can easily extend your Apache server's functionality by installing your own modules with the DSO mechanism by the help of this apxs tool:
$ apxs -i -a -c mod_foo.c
gcc -fpic -DSHARED_MODULE -I/path/to/apache/include -c mod_foo.c
ld -Bshareable -o mod_foo.so mod_foo.o
cp mod_foo.so /path/to/apache/libexec/mod_foo.so
chmod 755 /path/to/apache/libexec/mod_foo.so
[activating module `foo' in /path/to/apache/etc/httpd.conf]
There's a lot of help online for apache, apachectl, apxs, and all sorts of
configuration.

I don't know what you mean by 'module'. Do you mean something like modssl or
modphp? Then use those options at the command line.
$ rpm --rebuild apache...src.rpm --define 'with_mod_ssl yes'
or
$ rpm --rebuild apache...src.rpm --define 'with_mod_php yes'

You should probably learn which apache features you need before installing
apache. It is a big package, and trying to install it with all the options
turned on is probably a bad idea.
