The win98 handbook says nothing about that. Windows will destroy your MBR. It won't kill your FreeBSD partition, but it'll probally want to do so. (Found unformatted drive, Format? or something like that probally.) Once you've got it installed you'll have to boot off of a FreeBSD boot/install disk and set up your slices again, maybe add in BootMGR if you want.
