network setup question

New Around Here
Greetings All -

Few friends and I are working on a project such that they needs access to one of my machines in my network ('X' in the diagram below).

I have ASUS-68U router with merlin (380.59) installed. Please see the diagram below. My requirements are:

  1. Computer X needs to be accessible to VPN clients
  2. Computer X needs to have 2 ip address - one visible to VPN clients, one visible to internal computers (A, B, C)
  3. Computer X should not be accessible to outside world (w/o VPN access)
Is this setup possible using ASUS Merlin alone? Do I need to buy any new network device? Your help is greatly appreciated.
