Is there a library for node.js to "parse" a content of a file with specific syntax? In example, I have a file which I want to serve on my node.js server:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>...</head>
<body>
<?node echo Date.getTime(); ?> <!-- or something like this, I hope you have got the idea -->
</body>
</html>
Then it returns a HTML document:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>...</head>
<body>
08.08.2013 <!-- or something like this, I hope you have got the idea -->
</body>
</html>
I don't know how to describe it more precisly, something like PHP for Apache server, but for node.js server.

Just use CGI-Node. It allows you to run Node.js on any web hosting just like PHP:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<? var helloWorld = 'Hello World!'; ?>
<?= helloWorld ?>
<br>
<b>I can count to 10: </b>
<? for (var index = 0; index <= 10; index++) { ?>
<?= index ?>
<? } ?>
</body>
</html>
EJS templates look and feel like PHP and ASP but are pure JS: https://ejs.co/
Their example:
<ul>
<% for(var i=0; i<supplies.length; i++) {%>
<li><%= supplies[i] %></li>
<% } %>
</ul>
