I'm not sure if this is possible with verizon routers, but I know some routers will allow you to forward a remote port to a local port.
can this be done with the verizon MI424WR-GEN3I router?
yes
You'll find port forwarding under firewall settings in router admin

let me clarify:
does the router allow for an external port of 1 to be forwarded to a local port of 2, as an example?

yes you can forward to a different port to that of the incoming port

odd, I do not have that option in mine, it appears. I'm unable to edit port forwarding rules - only delete them or add new ones.
anyhow, I'm trying to get port 1194 to work without redoing a bunch of configs because it appears that verizon is blocking port 1194 (openvpn), so what I was trying to accomplish was using 1195 as an external port which would then get forwarded to port 1194 internally.
when I port scan the IP, I get this: Port 1195 is closed on 173.62.X.X.
