Is it possible to embed a control page into a web page?

I have control page setup with all my local weather conditions. I'm playing around with putting an IP camera stream of a mountain (4 Peaks) in my back yard. I'd done this decades ago with an analog camera that had a real lens. Made for some interesting pictures when storms came over the mountain. Webcams at the time just made it look like a bump on the horizon. For some reason, that I can't remember, it got too difficult to keep up.

I've revamped my security cameras with IP cams. I've successfully tested streaming with youtube live embedded into my test page. I was thinking of adding my local conditions control page to it. I've got it port forwarded, I can pull it up via the web. Is there a way to embed it onto the page with my camera feed?

There was a time that I knew a little about html but that was . . . well, decades ago, it's a bit different now. This is all in the testing phase. I'd need to get a dedicated camera for 4 Peaks if I were to implement it. Just looking at the possibility at the moment. Is it possible? If so could some give an example code? Here's the URL:

Best I can do is....possibly. Theoretically, it may be possible using an <iframe>.

Thanks for the reply. Actually, I was able to reverse engineer the youtube code and was able to put the control page on the page. Very Cool!
