Yes, and it's quite easy, but it depends on how much you value alerts.
If you want a daily log of what portsentry blocked, use logrotate's prerotate. If you want to receive each and every alert portsentry issues, use the "custom command" function in the configfile to drop the IP to a script. If you don't know how to do this, post your configfile (remember to scrub out any important IP addresses), and we'll build one.
