Author QUERY: 1 IIS set up to restrict websites according to login...

Is it possible to run only 1 IIS and set it up so that it displays specific
websites corresponding to the user account logged in?

Yes.

You do this by providing website application which displays specific
pages corresponding to user account login.

No specific IIS configuration required.

You do not try to configure one IIS to display specific websites
corresponding to the user account logged in. Why? Because the user
account must first connect an IIS website BEFORE it can authenticates
to the website -- so IIS cannot choose the correct website for the user
because it doesn't have the user (authentication hasn't happened yet).

This is why you must run one IIS with one website application which
displays specific pages corresponding to user account login. IIS runs
the website application after the user authenticates, so the website
application can easily determine the specific pages to show to that
user.
