With docker-compose:

version: '2.1'

services:

  site:
    image: ubuntu
    container_name: test-site
    command: sleep 999999

  dkr:
    image: docker
    privileged: true
    working_dir: "/dkr"
    volumes:
      - ".:/dkr"
      - "/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock"
    command: docker ps -a

Then try:

docker-compose up -d site
docker-compose up dkr

result:
