Yes, this can be accomplished. It is commonly referred to as port forwarding. It can be done directly using the proper iptables command. I'm lazy, however. I run a firewall on my system and use "shorewall" as my tool to set it up. I make the necessary changes in my shorewall config files and let shorewall invoke iptables with the proper incantation.
