This can be done using either something like rinetd
(http://www.boutell.com/rinetd) or transparent proxy/ipportfw support in
the kernel. See the following for more info on the latter:

While rinetd may be easier to set up, the main disadvantage to it is that
the internal host will think that all its connections come from the
forwarding host, which would make host based access control and accurate
logging more difficult.

This would definitely be possible if each machine uses a different port
but I doubt it would work if they are all using the same port.
