Would this be an undertaking to create an option in the ACP to turn on and off a custom block? Would it require database entries?

Hehe. 
Create an DB entry in the portal table, named something like "portal_my_block", create a new language variable named something like "PORTAL_MY_BLOCK" in the \language\en\mods\lang_portal_acp.php and add to the acp_portal.php something like:
In portal.php
In my_block.php:
In portal_body.html:
All names and variables are just examples.
As a quick version what your route should be.
