No, since that's not a function of the networking library but instead 
a function of the gateway/router.

Now, if you want to avoid problems with firewalls, what you can do 
instead is attempt to hijack a commonly used port (say...port 80) and 
communicate out that way.  I've never done this however, so I'm not 
sure of the exact requirements to accomplish this (I just know it's 
been done).

This still isn't perfect, since some sophisticated firewalls will 
block non-HTTP traffic on port 80.
