VPN ssh access over RDP port?

Guys,

Can I use an open RDP port to gain ssh access to my Linux server running the other side of our firewall?

I work from home on the odd occasion, we only have RDP port 3389 available once logged into the VPN. I would rather ssh into my workstation without the need for a desktop display.

Can I just simply change ssh port to 3389 on my office machine? Then ssh to port 3389 from home?

Or, ss there anything I can do in terms of port handling from the source and destination? For example:

Home
-------------
ssh to office machine on port 22 > my home machine forwards 22 to 3389

Office
-------
Host receives request on 3389 > forwards to port 22 for ssh access

Would it just be easier to change the port ssh uses on my office machine to 3389? Would this work?

Thanks,

general_lee

NAME

     ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling

SYNOPSIS

     hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command]

     hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name]
