Should be possible.

You need to settup dns like you would for any other site. Then edit your
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf to add a virtual site with its main directory equal
to /home/sites/domain.com/web/foo/.  You can find how to setup virutal domains
at apache.org. THe only problem is that you also could access the same pages
from domain.com/foo.  If you setup home/sites/domain.com/foo/ you could have
it just show up on foo.domain.com
