You may try

          location / {
              root /var/www/data/doman.com/fetch;
              set     $fetch   /fetch$uri;
              error_page 404 = $fetch;
          }

          location ~ /$ {
              index   index.html;
              root /var/www/data/doman.com/fetch;
              set     $fetch   /fetch${uri}index.html;
              error_page 403 404 = $fetch;
          }

          location ^~ /fetch/ {
              internal;
              include  proxy.conf;
              proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
              proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:9001/;
              proxy_store /var/www/data/domain.com$fetch;
              proxy_store_access user:rw group:rw all:r;
          }
