I don't understand what you want to accomplish. If you want Virtual Hosting, you will need the following

DNS setup:
www.site1.com resolves to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
www.site2.com also resolves to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
www.site3.com yet again resolves to xxx.xxx.xxx

In /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, under section 3 'Virtual Hosts', you will need to define www.site1.com as /var/www/html/site1, www.site2.com as /var/www/html/site2, etc. When you access the httpd server via the name www.site2.com, you will automatically read the index from /var/www/html/site2. Take a look at the examples in the httpd.conf file for more guidance.

If this isn't the type of set up you are looking for at all, you'll need to refine your question a little more.
