use alias.

location ~ ^/nagios/(.*\.php)$ {
  alias /usr/local/nagios/share/$1;
  fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
  fastcgi_index index.php;
  fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename;
  include fastcgi_params;
}
location = /nagios {
  rewrite ^ /nagios/ permanent;
}
location /nagios/ {
  index index.php;
  alias /usr/local/nagios/share/;
}
