You /can/ run multiple sites from different IP addresses on the same
or different ports, using virtual hosts, which are well documented in
apache. It basically just allows you to use custom configurations
depending on which IP address is accessed. So for instance, you could
have a different DocumentRoot for each ip address, which will quite
effectively give you different sites.

Do you actually have different network interfaces for each ip address?
Or do they all map to the same interface? If they're distinct
interfaces, I don't see any reason you couldn't set up a different
service for each one, but then again, I have no idea how to do it. If
they're all just a single network interface, then I'm pretty certain
it's not possible. This would pretty much defeat the purpose of a
port, which is to map a specific network connection to a specific
process.

But it sounds like virtual hosts might be sufficient for what you
need. You don't actually need different apache services to run
different sites at the same time.

Hope that helps.
