Is it possible to have an internal macports mirror that also contains

Great question. And even before the question of a local mirror: is
there
a format for packaging a set of binaries that can then be installed
into
an existing system -- like a *.deb or *.rpm file?
Such a format does exist: It's called a .pkg file and you interact
with them every time you install an Apple software update. However, I
don't think there's any functionality in MacPorts to create or use
package files.
