I have the following connections in my house:

Shows the internet connection coming in, a physical cable going into the router, and then all computers connecting to the router using a wireless connection.
I want all internet traffic to go through a proxy so I can add some control. I have children and want to add some control to the internet connection which isn't possible from the router directly.
So I was thinking about setting up a simple router, maybe in the form of a raspberry pi? to become a router, which I think means the above diagram will change into something like this:

My question is, is such a setup possible? i.e. using a raspberry pi as a router which connects to the router using a physical cable, and then all devices connect to the internet going through the raspberry pi, which should allow me to install some software in some sort of debian distro installed in the raspberry pi's sd card to monitor and control internet traffic?
