Hi Mohit Seoda,

Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

Yes, it is possible with the help of technical configuration settings for VM

Add public ports that will be automatically opened on a deployed virtual machine. You can specify the ports individually or via a range along with the supported protocol – TCP, UDP, or both. Be sure to use a hyphen if specifying a port range (Ex: 80-150).
