.htaccess folder to virtual-folder rewriting

Question

Is it possible with Apache's RewriteEngine to do the following, and how?

This is the environment:

domain.com has a folder that contains a index.html page, htaccess is set to strip files so domain.com/folder/ opens domain.com/folder/index.html

Now what i need to achieve is display domain.com/folder/ content (the index.html) as it comes from domain.com/virtualfolder/ where virtualfolder does not exist and the url has to show as domain.com/virtualfolder/

I hope what i wrote it is understandable.

Thank you very much

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^virtual-folder/(.*)$ folder/$1 [QSA]
