Is this possible?

Because I can't get this to work any other way, is it possible for my
machine B on my LAN to connect from port x to port Y on machine A in order
to get to a website's port Z and then for the traffic to come back through
machine A to machine B?

If that doesn't make sense I'm trying to get this to work and it won't
without a router, but I'd love to use KPF4's advanced rules, or something
like it to allow me to do the following:

view an external webpage with port 4020 (java applet) on the url from
machine B going via machine A which has a proxy cache on a different port
number that can't understand java applet traffic. Machine A should be able
to detect connections to anyurl:4020 and know the traffic is for machine B.
Configuring the proxy does not and cannot work with java applet traffic.

If you still don't get what I mean, I know its crazy and someone will just
say buy a router they cost $10 from walmart, but we don't all live in the US
and Asda here doesn't as far as I know sell cheap routers. Neither does PC
world. Software should be able to do this kind of thing.

Thanks.
