Has it ever worked for you?

Does it work if you disable Little Snitch entirely?

I have tried it didn't worked.

Yes, it could. MacPorts uses the rsync protocol for selfupdate, which uses port 873. Some extremely restrictive networks might whitelist specific ports, like 80 for web traffic and 443 for secure web traffic, and block all others. If this is the case on the network you're using, talk to your network administrator about whitelisting port 873 as well.
