Unfortunately not. But in that case it doesn't just fallback to
icmp/echo requests.

nmap -sS -n -Pn -PS3389 --traceroute -p 3389 w.x.y.z

Starting Nmap 6.47 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2015-10-16 22:28 CEST
Note: Host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our ping probes,
try -Pn
Nmap done: 1 IP address (0 hosts up) scanned in 2.24 seconds
