Unless I completely misunderstand ipmasq and NAT, no you cannot do this. routed sees an outgoing connection on port whatever and sees what MAC address or "fake" internal IP it's coming from. Then an incoming connection to the same port is obviously for that same internal machine. And you can setup various rules. I suppose you could setup a rule to direct all incoming telnet sessions to a particular internal host. Or all incoming telnet sessions from a particular IP address or block... But there is no way to directly telnet in. The outside world sees your network as having one (1) IP address. Any addresses used internally cannot be seen by the outside world.
