I only uses ispconfig 3.1 control panel and have not much knowledge about cpanel. So far that I know it should be easy to build your own server with nginx as reversed proxy to apache but without any control panel.
But if you require a control panel at the same time, it will be little bit harder. I have tried that with ISPConfig 3 and it takes most of my time figuring out. At the end I realized that you would need to create two config for each site you have i.e. one for nginx and one for apache.
Which means, if you have like half a dozen or less, may be you can try it. Otherwise, you need a script that can automate the creation of such config because by default every control panel only support using either one and not both.
To save your time, I would suggest you to choose either nginx or apache if you require a control panel a the same time.

Makes sense. More than anything the goal is to ditch apache altogether. What are your thoughts on linking a custom nginx install to cpanel php fpm?

Or using LiteSpeed/OpenLiteSpeed if you want a compatibility with Apache.

Not really necessary if you intend to use Apache with Nginx-like-handling i.e. handles higher concurrency. For that, instead of using module mpm_prefork, you can consider using mpm_worker or mpm_event instead.

if you want nginx+apache setup for personal use with a panel then i recommend vestacp.

I'm still using cpanel. I like cpanel fine, other than lack of nginx support. That's ok. Nginx was easy to do.
