I think this is application and not netfilter specific. You may only be able to use the owner match.
But if it is good for you ??? I do not know !!!! :D
You can DROP/REJECT packets that came from an disabled port/application but you can not disable the bind function on a specific port to an application.
Why do you want to do that?

:) I want to control which ports are open in output chain. Testing, exploring.

I know it is not important which ports are open in output chain,
usually putting output policy to accept.

AFAIK, this has only meaning in the lower range of ports... (0-1023)

Why?

Pleas get your facts straight. ICMP does not have ports.

ICMP was just example, first on my mind in that moment :)
TCP,UDP... Many things to think about :D
