Yes, specifically Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention which forbids an "occupying authority" from "deporting" or "transfering" parts of its own civilian population into occupied territory.

It occurs to me that the "illegal settlement" argument requires a very one-sided reading of the conventions requirements in order to make that case.
