I do it all the time - for example, I run internal ssh server access on 
ports 23-28, one for each machine, so I can ssh to the machine by 
ssh'ing to the corresponding port. I relocate http to 800+ for similar 
devices that use web configuration interfaces. I also use it for serving 
multiple webcams to the public, each one on a port above 80. Since they 
are onlyu found by redirect, it doesn't matter what port they are on. I 
could change the port they serve on but that makes maintenance a headace.
I use Shorewall as my firewall and it is relatively easy to do in Shorewall.
