Q1. No. The site name MUST resolve to the IP of the Virtual Server.

 

Q2. The CN (Common Name) of the cert MUST be the FQDN of the DNS entry that resolves to the Virtual Server IP. (I'm ignoring things like alternate names & wildcards deliberately here to make it easier).

 

 

So you need to create a virtual server (VS) that has a separate IP from any of the others and place your actual web servers into a pool that is used by the virtual server.
