Sure you can. You just need to change the Splunk Web Port. You can follow one refer to this doc: https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/Changedefaultvalues#Change_network_ports

This answer help on that too: https://answers.splunk.com/answers/67/how-do-i-change-the-ports-that-splunk-listens-on.html

You could configure Splunk to listen on port 80 or 443, but that requires running Splunk as root, which is strongly discouraged.

Your best option probably is to use a proxy or other network device to map port 80 to port 8000.
