Can we replace localhost with IP address?

Ordinarily only the address 127.0. 0.1/32 is used for loopack. But you can change the loopback IP address to some other IP address by modifying the network configuration of the loopback network adapter and then pointing the localhost to the new IP address in the hosts file.
