Yes its possible. What you need to look up and study on is Fully Qualified Domain Names, or FQDN for short.

From what i understand is that you want a web page with a domain name to list your internal devices?

 

There is a few problems with this.

1. You can only run one service on each port.
2. You will not be able to connect to the local IPs from outside of the network unless they run a service.

An example here is PLEX that uses a diffrent port than 80 or 443 (SSL). That is in use by the web server. Each other device you want to connect will have to run a diffrence service, or on diffrent ports.

 

And no.. This will not automaticly show you the internal IP addresses. Firstly that is from a security stand point an idiotic idea. Secondly you'd have to code something to snap up the active devices on the network and display it on the website.

yeah i know i think about its kinda stupid idea  , i think running openvpn server its easier and from security stand point more safer solution

It's a good idea but not the most secure

VPN with something like DynDNS for a dynamic IP updating service would be awesome.
