I would say no, unless the service makes no sense without opening the port.  For
instance, running sshd without port 22 open doesn't make much sense.  OTOH,
running a web server without port 80 open has legitimate uses, so (for instance)
the Apache httpd module doesn't set a firewall rule.

Also, there is currently no way to negate specific definitions of an option of
type "list".  You can only do something like

  networking.firewall.allowedUDPPorts = mkForce [];

in configuration.nix, but that gets rid of *all* allowed UDP ports.
