Not sure this is what you want, but lsof in the ports will show you
the process name and PID that is associated with a port number.

So lsof -i shows you:

COMMAND   PID   USER   FD   TYPE     DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
sshd    17767   root    3u  IPv6 0xe096c500      0t0  TCP *:ssh (LISTEN)

(Forgive any bad word wrap)
