can nginx backend server be (external) internet server?

I want to set up a proxy by using nginx.and I want to use a remote server on internet to be my backend server, is this possible for Nginx?

i.e. both the client and the backend server are on the internet.

i the config is somewhat like the following:

server {
    listen       443 ssl;
    server_name  localhost;

    ssl_certificate      cert.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key  cert.key;

    ssl_session_cache    shared:SSL:1m;
    ssl_session_timeout  5m;

    ssl_ciphers  HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5;
    ssl_prefer_server_ciphers  on;

    location / {
    proxy_pass http://www.google.com;

    #Proxy Settings     
    proxy_redirect     off;
    proxy_set_header   Host             $host;
    proxy_set_header   X-Real-IP        $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For  $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    #proxy_next_upstream error timeout invalid_header http_500 http_502 http_503 http_504;
    proxy_max_temp_file_size 0;
    proxy_connect_timeout      90;
    proxy_send_timeout         90;
    proxy_read_timeout         90;
    proxy_buffer_size          4k;
    proxy_buffers              4 32k;
    proxy_busy_buffers_size    64k;
    proxy_temp_file_write_size 64k;
    }

Sure

upstream your-domain.de {
            ## network
            server 8.8.8.8:80;
}
server {
    server_name your-domain2.de;
    listen 80 ;
    location / {
        proxy_pass http://your-domain.de;
}}

You can do all sorts of things like ignoring cors etc with the right params but this is the baseline
