Is it possible to run a provider hosted app from a vm on the same server as Sharepoint? And if so should i do it or is there a better way? Thanks

Yes it is possible to create provider hosted apps in a VM which already has SharePoint installed. If you target the on premise SharePoint, this type of app is called High trust app. A high trust provider-hosted app can establish trust with SharePoint by using digital certificates.

@CodeCat, you can have both of them on the same machine. SharePoint will have separate IIS site and remote web will also have a separate IIS site. – Nadeem Yousuf Feb 5 '15 at 15:16

@CodeCat, yes it can be. The link I provided had all of these on one VM. – Nadeem Yousuf Feb 5 '15 at 15:20

Yes you can create and run a provider hosted on the same machine as the SharePoint installation. This kind of provider hosted app where SharePoint and app will be on premise and you will be calling server-to-server is termed as a high-trust app. There are a few steps you need to carry out in order to get this working eg. setting up trust between the app and sharepoint. Here is a guide to start with.
