That's because nasm is used for the x86 CPU architecture, raspberry pi in the other hand uses ARM architecture. And also I think assembly instructions in Porth can be only used for x86, for ARM you need to use different assembly instructions.

There is also pull request for arm support https://github.com/tsoding/porth/pull/63

Basically, you need to use aarch64-linux-gnu-as assembler instead of nasm. I believe you might have to modify the main file to do this until that pull request gets looked into.
