I think you might be looking for two server{} blocks; one with "listen
port default_server" that will not talk to the backend; and one with
"listen port" without "default_server", and with "server_name" with the
names that you want, that will talk to the back-end service.

See, for example,
http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/server_names.html#miscellaneous_names where
using the config either side of "In catch-all server examples", requests
for four names to port 80 will be handled in one server{} block, and
requests for any other names to port 80 will be handled in the other
server{} block.

Cheers,
