is it possible to configure Apache2 to serve the contents of a

I don't see the problem. This is exactly what apache does by default. The
DocumentRoot directive maps the base URL of the site (bar.myhost.mydomain) onto a
filesystem path (/var/www/bar) then any additional path information in the URL is
simply appended to the DocumentRoot (bar.myhost.mydomain/path/ -->
/var/www/bar/path/)
What have you tried? What went wrong? (include error-log messages)...
Both Debian and Ubuntu install a default mapping
(/etc/apache2/mods-available/default) that looks like the following:
NameVirtualHost *
<VirtualHost *>
DocumentRoot /var/www/
<Directory />
[...]
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
[...]
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">
[...]
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
This maps as follows:
mydomain.tld --> /var/www/
mydomain.tld/foo --> /var/www/foo/
...and so on...
Which directive do I have to change in order to get the "default"
behaviour, as you said?
