I'm not certain what you're talking about but I assume the answer is "no." Software installed by MacPorts always goes in a particular prefix (usually /opt/local though you can change it by compiling MacPorts manually), and software installed in that prefix is not relocatable.

The issue tracker is not for asking questions; it's for filing bug reports and enhancement requests. Ask questions on the macports-users mailing list.
