Not possible, sorry. Closest thing you could achieve is a reverse proxy.

It is possible... think google, you think all their data is located on 1 server?

As Syntax metioned
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_proxy

I've also heard that people use this way to hide the actual server from attacks aswell.

Actually I have used a european dedicated server as main server and got another linux based dedicated from canada reversed to the EU dedicated.
US player should have less lag then because their own connection is not strong enough to send and receive data that fast, the canadian dedicated had a 100 mbit connection instead..
Thats the closest thing you could do I guess..

http://realtibia.org
and
http://us.realtibia.org

both have different IP's but lead to the same dedicated

Yes you just described a reverse proxy.

Well as far as websites are concerned it obviously is possible as a lot of people us CDNs. However I have never setup a reverse proxy for an OTS although i can imagine it to work just fine^^

I've setup the 'CDN' for OTS once just for testing purposes.
1. Just bought VPS that got a good connection to my server
2. Created GRE tunnel between them.
3. Created iptables & iproute rules to route the traffic correctly.
4. Edited login server of TFS to send the other IP if the player is connecting from specific countries.

However, I didnt get a big advantage from that.

You need to edit this https://github.com/otland/forgottenserver/blob/master/src/protocollogin.cpp#L92

You can use GeoIP library to get the player country or you can make player choose the preffered server in your webpage.
The second option can be done like:

if (account.country == "BR") {
output->addString("123.134.45.45");
} else {
output->addString(g_config.getString(ConfigManager::IP));
}

Of course you have to add new variable to account and load it from DB.
