When one registers a url with a dns registrar can they include port mapping to the host computer?
www.myurl1.com myip:80 www.myurl2.com myip:81
Basically can one map several urls to the same host computer using port 80 as seen from the outside(so one doesn't have to do www.myurl2.com:81)?

You can add Virtual Hosts to your webs-servers conf file. Just have your dns registrar point all your domains to the same IP# port :80 and the web-server will do the rest.
See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/
Apache httpd.conf example:
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/myurl1.com/"
ServerName myurl1.com
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/myurl1.com/"
ServerName myurl2.com
</VirtualHost>
