  1. Is this possible?
  2. If possible, how can I achieve that?

  Thank You.

  For hosting at WordPress.com, you could point a subdomain like blog.betagamers.net to the site on these servers. It’s not possible to point a subdirectory like betagamers.net/blog to this host. If you’d like to map a subdomain, you can map under a paid plan: https://wordpress.com/pricing

  The other option would be to install WordPress.org on your existing host in a folder on your current website’s servers. Get information on that solution at https://wordpress.org.

  Here’s a bit about the differences- https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  @betagamersblog, we have this support page that explains the process of mapping a subdomain to a WordPress.com site.
