Hi,

is it possible to replace my NGINX only installation with a apache or Apache+Nginx installation ?

First one removes all package files, while the second also removes the configuration files.
If you intend to use nginx later on with the configuration you did, use remove. Else, I would suggest using purge.

After removing nginx, you can restart apache to make sure it is listening to port 80.
If you had removed apache before installing nginx, you can re-install it with

And...what about vhost for the newly installed Apache??

It isn't that easy. You need to change vesta config files, Nginx configs, Apache configs, ...
Maybe you can take a look at the install script and use some commands to download templates, change configs.

The easiest way from Nginx only is to Nginx + Apache. You only need to add Apache, some templates and modify some config files. You can install Apache when Nginx stays running to prevent downtime.

From Nginx to Apache only is hard I think. You need to change ports, ...
