You can do something like this if you're using the Nessus 3.1.x beta.  
It allows for port numbers and ranges in rules; eg,

# Forbid connecting on ports > 1024 for the 192.168.2.0/24 subnet
reject 192.168.2.0/24:1024-65535

# Forbid connecting on port 80 on your router
reject 192.168.2.1:80

# Always reject connecting on port 9100
reject 0.0.0.0/0:9100

The latest beta (3.1.9) is available from 
<http://www.nessus.org/download/?product=nessus32-beta 
.
