I have developed a joomla website. I also have a PHP based website.
Let’s call my joomla website to be www.xyzjoomla.com and my PHP based static website to be www.myPHPwebsite.com
I have created a login form on www.myPHPwebsite.com and want to login into www.xyzjoomla.com.
The idea behind is that when we submit a form in joomla, some data is being send to the page (some $_POST values) and joomla takes those credentials and logs in. So my query is that, is it possible to send those data from www.myPHPwebsite.com to www.xyzjoomla.com so that when data is received by the joomla site from that PHP site it logs user in.
Or if this is not possible, then is there any alternate to achieve this thing.
If you have a login on your php site the problem becomes very similar to single sign on and you could use one of the SSO systems available. Jfusion comes to mind here.

Or build a simple login on the parent and use jfusion or similar to SSO between the sites.
