I currently have nginx running on the same host that my backends.
I have 4 of them listening on different ports on 127.0.0.1.
In this situation may I expect 4 times 65000 simultaneous connections ?

Yes, I've seen this, however I didn't catch how to dynamically assign a
value to proxy_bind from a pool of IP addresses in nginx (not Nginx Plus).
