You should not have multiple instances assigned to the same Public IP. This will cause issues with being unable to port forward the required ports to each system individually and end up with problems, such as audio issues, as ports will not be properly forwarded.

You need to have a separate public IP assigned to each instance from which you can open and forward the required ports from the firewall.

You should look at using multi company if you want to do this.

You can use the multitenant option!

But 2 machines behind a single IP, no. You could however have your ISP provide you with an additional subnet of IP which you could assign to each one of your machines.
