This is actually a bad idea. The principle of containers is one service per one container.

A container is really just a process. You might run 50 different containers on a machine, with very little overhead, and still gain the advantages of isolation for each service.

the service you are looking for is kubernetes and called pod and/or deployment.

You can put nginx/php in two separate container into the same pod and the mysql-server in another pod.
