1) You should have been able to find this out on your own.  Specifically 
here:
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.4R/hardware-i386.html (which is linked to 
from the Release Information page of the main FreeBSD website)

and here:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ata&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+5.4-RELEASE
(which is linked to from the above link, among other places)

2) Even if you couldn't find this info on your own, this is entirely the 
wrong mailing list.  -questions or -stable might have been more 
appropriate.

3) Which Intel SATA controller are you asking about?

4) The answer is probably yes.  The ata driver in FreeBSD 6.0 supports every 
mainstream Intel ATA controller I'm aware of, up to and including ICH6 
(ICH5 for FreeBSD 5.4 according to the manpage above).
