No, nothing at all in that direction.
What httpd_accel_port says is that when Squid is accelerating a request
the origin server listens to port 80. Transparent proxying is in Squid's
point of view HTTP server acceleration, the "transparency" is up to the
OS to provide and none of Squid's business. Squid does not care much how
or if requests appears to it's inbound port (default 3128). This is the
job of the TCP/IP implementation in the OS where Squid runs.
