I currently have a public IP address assigned to a sub domain of ours (abc.ourdomain.com) and want to create a different sub domain (123.ourdomain.com) with the same public IP address. Both sub domains would point to the same server but on different ports of course. Is this possible? Will my ISP allow it?

Can you assign 1 public IP to 2 different sub domains?

You would use DNS to forward requests for the different subdomain to the same IP by setting up (A) records to point to the appropriate IP of the names you want to implement.
test.domain.com = 10.0.0.1
test123.domain.com = 10.0.0.1
... are you looking to use Host Headers or something to host multiple web sites on a single server? The port traffic would then be handled by your web server based on Header information. (Just a shot in the dark at what youre trying to accomplish)

Look at NamedBased Virtual Hosting in Apache, similar in IIs.
