The owner module can control outbound communication by uid/gid. [1] There are no modules to handle things by PID AFAIK. This can however be accomplished by SELinux and Apparmor custom rules but that is a loaded topic.

Firejail [2] and Bubblewrap [3] can put limits on application capabilities and/or take away network access.

A round-about and heavy handed way to manage communications by PID would be to isolation applications in their own VM or container and map the VM or container to a unique user or group.
