Is it possible to host Lumen API and a Laravel project in same domain?

I create two project. One is Lumen that is responsible for api. And another is Laravel project that is dependent on lumen project. If I host two different domain and linked then it is all right! But is it possible to place them as same domain as subfolder?

Ex: domain.com/ is for laravel & domain.com/lumen for api

It's possible, you just need to configure your webserver to handle it the way you'd expect.

I'd however personally recommend that you set it up on a sub-domain instead of a sub-directory, since it can cause confusion that a route is actually an entirely different application.

Consider placing your API on api.domain.com and the actual app on domain.com.

Have a look at the Deployment section of the Laravel docs for an example NGINX configuration, you would essentially just swap the domain with api.domain.com and point the root accordingly.
