Answer 1

Yes it is possible

In your apache virtual host file configure with the following

    ServerName subdomain.myapp.com

    ProxyRequests off

    
            Order allow,deny
            Allow from all
    

    ProxyPass / http://localhost:3000/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:3000/
    ProxyPreserveHost on

You should have

NameVirtualHost *:80

on top of your file and also Proxy module installed for apache ( I think it is a default configuration for ubuntu )

LoadModule proxy_module lib/httpd/modules/mod_proxy.so

it must be in your httpd.conf file

then you should restart apache and it must be fine!
