Most definitely NOT speaking as an expert but in my perambulations around
the web I have found mention of using nginx WITH apache2 specifically in
some kind of a reverse proxy cache system/mode.

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-nginx-as-a-reverse-proxy-for-apache

https://serverfault.com/questions/30705/how-to-set-up-nginx-as-a-caching-reverse-proxy
   seems to have a fair amount of suggestions

https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/examples/reverseproxycachingexample/

https://guides.wp-bullet.com/how-to-configure-nginx-reverse-proxy-wordpress-cache-apache/
   lots of setup stuff available here

I was using

nginx + apache2 + reverse proxy cache
   in duckduck

apache2 + reverse proxy cache
   seems to offer less proposals than the previous

Perhaps this coupling would work for you.
