I use Crafty Controller for Minecraft. I have a server running at 192.168.50.16:25540. I want it to resolve to minecraft.example.com. I have Nginx Proxy Manager setup for my domain and can access it from inside my network, but it'd be nice to be able to use a domain instead.

NPM only has options for http and https, so is this even possible using NPM?

EDIT: this is for only internal access I have external access via tailscale.

No

Reverse proxies like you are talking about are only for http connections. For more information look at the OSI model. (The proxy is operating on the application layer while Minecraft is on the transport layer)

Instead use DNS to resolve the domain name to an IP. Better yet, just set a static IP.
