yes. you need to recompile your kernel with:

options         EXT2FS 

# Add support for the EXT2FS filesystem of Linux fame.  Be a bit
# careful with this - the ext2fs code has a tendency to lag behind
# changes and not be exercised very much, so mounting read/write could
# be dangerous (and even mounting read only could result in panics.)

When you have booted with the new kernel, 
you can mount an ext2fs filesystem by giving a command like: 

mount -t ext2fs /dev/wd0s3 /mnt

see http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Linux+FreeBSD-5.html

for more.
