No, cvsup uses its own protocol and ports. The default port is 5999. See the man page for alternative modes (including SOCKS) for getting around a firewall. Note that cvsup.freebsd.org is really, really busy; try a mirror closer to your location. cvsup.freebsd.org may have denied your connection because it was over it's limit or the server was down. cvsup2 is a pretty good bet, but there are cvsup[345] too I think.
