Short answer is no, NGINX by itself can't execute a PHP code. But here's the important notes here: 1. NGINX has a fastcgi module, [1], that modules allows passing requests to a FastCGI server; 2. PHP distribution contains PHP FastCGI Process Manager, [2] is a primary PHP FastCGI implementation. There many resources in the internet that describes how to integrate NGINX with a FastCGI server, so I'd recommend to start a journey from the nginx.org, [3]. Also, you may want to take a look on NGINX Unit, [4], a lightweight and versatile application runtime hat provides the essential components for your web application as a single open-source server. Hope that helps.
