If the clients are Windows NT, you can assign multiple IP addresses to each network adapter. Otherwise, I don't know of an easy way, as your public IPs and the LAN's private IPs are totally separate networks.

This is the way I have my network connected.  I use DSL to connect to the internet.  Out of the DSL modem, I connect an ethernet cable to a  5 port 10/100 switch.  I plug in a e-smith server to one of the 4 ports via ethernet cable and give one of the ethernet cards a public static IP.  I have 3 ports available on the 10/100 switch to put additional servers on the internet via a public ip.
