In the host you're connecting from you can set entries in the ssh config
file(s) to handle this, e.g.,
$ cat /etc/ssh/ssh_config
...
host foo
HostName some.firewall.host
Port 1234
...
host bar
HostName some.firewall.host
Port 5678
...
The firewall forwards queries on those ports to the appropriate machine.
I've set this up a few times, but it requires coordinating entries on
the firewall and whatever computers you log on to. A simple alternative
(as mentioned by others) is to connect to one internal machine, and then
ssh from there to the other machines.
Otherwise I see the problem you describe a lot, and sometimes just edit
the .ssh/known_hosts file to remove the offending entry...
