I know there's sketch to make ESP8266 becoming a simple web server. ESP8266 is cheap, small and consume less power compared to a Arduino Wifi shield.
Due to a more complex functionality requirement, I wish to place the web server code inside the Arduino itself (UNO, Nano or Pro Mini maybe). Is it possible to do this by configuring ESP8266 as a wifi bridge/shield to the Arduino? Or some mechanism methods which can route network traffics from ESP8266 to/from Arduino?

It connected to 4 relays & one I2C RTC DS1307.
It needs to sync RTC time with NTP server, and implement a web server which allows on-demand turn on/off each individual relay or by scheduling (e.g: turn on/off different relay at particular time of day). If RAM spaces allows, would like to implement a password access scheme for the web server as well
