Map multiple public IP addresses to one private IP

The small company hosts multiple secure web sites (HTTPS). The ISP assigns all public IP addresses to one server with a private IP without blocking any ports (ISP manages the router).  They programmed the server point each public IP address to a different private IP address, for example, x.x.x.1 to 192.168.1.2, x.x.x.2 to 192.168.1.3. I suggest them to buy a Cisco PIX 506 to do NAT. They worry adding Cisco firewall will bring a problem and they don’t want to make any changes on the web server. Can I map multiple public IP addresses to one private IP address, for example x.x.x1 to x.x.x.5 pointing to 192.168.1.2? If yes, what are the command lines?

You cant point two public ip´s to one private.  Static is one form of address translation so only one pubip ->privip is possible.
Instead you could use two internal ip on the server NIC and point one pubip to each of the ip on the nic.
