I think you'd need to configure a reverse proxy (nginx, Apache). This isn't particularly Node-specific; however I haven't tried it yet so I don't know if there are any particular gotchas with Node/Express.

v0.3.4 includes an improved https module, but I believe the Express author has stated that v3, classified an unstable (odd-numbered) release, isn't supported. Of course Node's still in its infancy so instability will be the rule for some time to come.

I asked about this a few days ago:

Node.js + SSL support

That's not really what I wanted to hear but it's probably a more reliable way of doing things from the sound of it.
