That is also the reason I did it.
You can even use port 80 and 443 if those are not in use on the server.
Only thing to do this is start icecast2 as root user and group in /etc/init.d/icecast2 or /etc/default/icecast2 and use the <changeowner> section in icecast2.xml:
<security>
<chroot>0</chroot>
<changeowner>
<user>icecast2</user>
<group>icecast</group>
</changeowner>
</security>
Glad I could help to make it work.

Thank you all for your answers, especially this one here!
Thank you, Paul, for the many good advices.
I actually got it working! In pretty much the same way you described it. ()
As players I tried with success: mpv, mplayer, vlc, cvlc (Linux).
Also inside an <audio> tag in a https page, it worked!
This was the reason I wanted to use https, because I wanted to embed the stream in an https site; if icecast runs only with http, chromium complains; in Firefox it worked well.
