Ubuntu root as proxy, connected to VPN

Hey guys,

I am looking the following:
I am trying to set up a proxy on my Ubuntu root server, which should be connected to a VPN provider. Only the proxy should be connected to VPN, all other root traffic should not be touched in any way
Is this possible technically?

Regards

CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL(3)				     curl_easy_setopt options					CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL - tunnel through HTTP proxy SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL, long tunnel); DESCRIPTION
Set the parameter to 1 to make libcurl tunnel all operations through the HTTP proxy. There is a big difference between using a proxy and to tunnel through it. If you don't know what this means, you probably don't want this tunneling option. Tunneling essentially means that a CONNECT is sent to the proxy, asking it to connect to a remote host on a specific port number and then the traffic is just passed through the proxy. Proxies tend to whitelist specific port numbers it allows CONNECT requests to and often only port 80 and 443 are allowed. When using this, it only makes sense to use CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE(3) set to a HTTP proxy. To suppress proxy CONNECT response headers from user callbacks use CURLOPT_SUPPRESS_CONNECT_HEADERS(3). DEFAULT
