wait, if your ISP is already virtualizing your internet server, I'm not 
sure what you're asking?

do you want to run your own hardware server and host virtual machines 
for your customers/clients ?  then, yes, KVM + virt-manager is a good 
solution.

you can't run virtualization under an already virtualized environment.

btw, it sounds like your ISP is using vmware esxi as the hypervisor, but 
thats just an educated guess based on the minimal intel given.
