yes, you can (include your upstream-config and any other part). 
you just need to place it into the right context, e.g. inside 
a http { ... } - block and not inside a server { ... } - block

every upstream-config for each of your server-parts gets a **unique** name,


what does $ grep -Rn "loadbalancer" /etc/nginx/* 
gives you back? might be just a typo.
