I don't think so. It is not Squid's business to filter those URL
references. However, if Squid is an accelerated proxy it will accept
requests on port 80. Perhaps you can get it to listen on ports 81 and 8080
also, but I don't know if it will then forward these requests to the web
server on the correct port. Someone else on the mailing list may know -
but until they get back to you, you can try making Squid listen on ports
80, 81 and 8080. I don't know if it will work, but logically it seems that
it might.
