Hi,

My clients need to host multiple website within a single account. This account will have a static IP address to host a SSL cert.

Is this kind of configuration are possible?
 
If the package the user has allows more than one domain then yes, you can have multiple domains on a single account.
 
I think so. Only one IP and one cert are currently allowed (DirectAdmin limitation). So you'd have to make a common domain or subdomain that all could use that would be secure, otherwise you'll recieve a warning.
 
A single IP# address can be dedicated to a user account, and then the user account can use it for multiple sites.

However, as Jon points out, a standard cert can only be issued in one domain, and any other domain attempting to use that cert will come up with an error in every user's browser each time s/he attempts to use the cert.

You can buy a wildcard cert for, for example, *.example.com, and then you can have secure access to sub1.example.com, and sub2.example.com, but those certs are quite expensive.
