No. By spec, SSL negotiation is the very first thing that happens on a
SSL connection occurring; there's no way to determine that a non-SSL
connection is being attempted.
As Markus says, "don't do that". If it's important that user error is
minimised, it's important enough to use standard port numbers - and, if
needed, to redirect users from the insecure to the secure port at an
appropriate time.
