I doubt it. It's pretty much a waste of time.

You can have netfilter (iptables) log info about packets. Say anything
with a SYN set. Then have another program following that log.

I used to monitor worm activity outside my firewall, but the last two
ISPs have been blocking these ports so there's been no activity for
years. The only activity I still see is bittorent packets.
