Yes you can. You have to use any tunnelling software that will route all your data though the port you want. You want that through you http port. So use "http-tunnel" or "httport". Search for these and download.

It sounds like you're on a school or business network.
Web browsing uses port 80, not 8080. Port 8080 is used for web proxies. If you're using a web proxy to get on the internet, you cannot use that port for Shareaza or any other program. And if your network requires a web proxy for web browsing, Shareaza isn't going to work at all.

Click on the tools menu at the top of the screen and then click settings.
a window will then open in the white box on the left. click connection which is under internet.
on this page you will find a box which is called port which contains a number (by default it is 6346) change it to port 8080 and then click OK

Emule is by far the best p2p program. Get it here http://j.mp/1AymHO5 if you don't have it
Give it a try.
Have a nice day

Tell your P2P client to use that port instead.
