I haven't done this specifically with nginx, but I've done similar  
thing in the past using lighttpd and I see no reason why it shouldn't  
work for nginx. The way I had it set up:

lighttpd (nginx, in your case) listening on port 80.
Apache listening on 127.0.0.1:8000.
lighttpd configured to proxy some requests to 127.0.0.1:8000 and serve  
some (static content) by itself, thus reducing load on Apache.

I had Apache built with mod_php and using prefork MPM, which consumed  
quite a lot of memory if I hadn't used a lighter webserver for static  
content (which was ca 60% of all requests in my case). Nowadays more  
popular approach seems to be using FPM for PHP and interfacing Apache  
(configured with some threaded MPM) to it via FastCGI, so the need for  
extra webserver "in front of" Apache is perhaps not that great  
anymore. I myself migrated to using lighttpd+PHP-FPM :)
