No, I've done that  before I could get what's called a pointer record or 
reverse DNS for my mail server ... Register a domain and setup the DNS server. 
If the ip is dynamic you have to regularly update your DNS server.  The forward 
zones will work.  If you use openssl to generate your own ssl certificates ... 
(./configure --enable-so --enable-ssl) They wont be recognized by the 
certificate authority.

eg: https://mail.nvita.org

try it.

<VirtualHost _default_:443>

mod_gnutls can do 'Server Name Indication' and mod_ssl with apache_2.2
should do it too
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34607
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=776281

But hoster may not use mod_gnutls or not recent version of apache, so
it may not support multiple ssl with single IP.
