Is it possible to load balance http traffic on different ports to the same pool members using the same VS?   For example we have an application that uses a virtual server on our LTM of appsvr.   ...

You can create the new VIP with same IP address and different port.

 

Create a new VIP with same IP address and port 9000. Create a new pool with members abd port number 9000. Thats it.

 

As David stated above, Vips are ip and port combination and you can create many VIPs with same IP and different ports.

 

If you have many vips on same IP address and different ports, i would suggest to create a wildcard vip (IP:any) and create an iRule to make the lb decisions. It is pretty easy and straight forward.
