Check out DIIT (Digital Invisible Ink Toolkit). It's a Java application
that is run from an executable jar file, so it is as portable as they come
(as long as you have a JRE installed). It supports several different steg
algorithms and is very easy to use.

I'm not aware of such stego executable (that should be considered any
safe), but the well-known (and one of the best) algorithm M5 from
Andreas Westfeld comes in the fashion of a Java package -- I guess it
should be considered portable, maybe more than an exe file?

See also Neil Johnson page for starters:

Some more googling yields Hide-in-Picture for a 'portable' exe:

To some extent, you might also consider this project aiming at
developping a live CD (is that portable enough?) with built-in
anonymizing tools (which is definitely to be considered a form of
steganography IMO):

Final thoughts:
- current media-oriented stego tools only deal with first-order
statistics of the media. Powerful classifiers like SVM do help a lot in
distinguishing modifications in higher-order statistics that are caused
by stego tools. See works by Jessica Fridrich et al.
- by 'portable' don't you mean 'ready to work out of the box'? If so,
just consider building a static executable and distribute it freely! As
a reasonably secure public-key stego tool (at least for first-order
statistics), I would use PubliMark -- not yet broken:
