Is there a way for me to use my server's IP address to submit a form rather than my networks ip address?

Corrections to my coding/thoughts welcome.
Requests cannot be "forwarded" unless you want to deal with setting up a proxy. And once you need form data, that gets more complex.
The short answer is no.
The long answer is that you can look into the curl functions. It's very possible, but quite complex and might be very complex especially if you're "forwarding" it from a user submission.
But once you set it up, it might help with security, etc. Just seems quite complex, so think twice before working that hard.

Haven't got a chance to try this out yet but hopefully will soon. Thanks. djr33 is this similar to how a proxy would be set up? The user input will always be the same if that makes a difference in easiness.
