Not for a reverse proxy.

The reference to SSL tunneling probably is from discussions on how to
encrypt browser proxy connections with SSL for getting to the Internet.
Here the SSL tunnel is needed as the browsers do not support SSL
encrypted proxy connections, only SSL encrypted web server connections..

Fully possible. The internal port is set in cache_peer. But be warned
there is some technical issues with running servers on different ports
than they are published on. It's best is the web server is always
certain about what the real URL published on the Internet really is.
