Hello,

I’ve found WAF Module for NginX called Naxsi  
[http://code.google.com/p/naxsi/](http://code.google.com/p/naxsi/)  
And I’ve read the manual to compile it, but is it possible to  
applied/recompile naxsi module to NginX from packages?

Reference: how to install naxsi from tarball

No, you’ll need to build Nginx from source.
