No.  MacPorts itself and quite a number of ports install things
outside /opt.  You will have to move these as well, but getting them
all together will be painful.

http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/wiki/FAQ#HowdoIremoveoruninstallMacPorts
has an (incomplete) list of those locations outside /opt.
