Indeed, it can :) Here are details what I just have checked:
root@fbsd:~ # gpart show ada{1,3}
=> 1 204799 ada1 MBR (100M)
1 204799 1 linux-raid (100M)
=> 1 204799 ada3 MBR (100M)
1 204799 1 linux-raid (100M)
root@fbsd:~ # file -s /dev/ada{1,3}s1
/dev/ada1s1: data
/dev/ada3s1: data
root@fbsd:~ # gnop create -o 520192 /dev/ada{1,3}s1
root@fbsd:~ # gstripe create -s 512K stripe0 /dev/ada1s1.nop /dev/ada3s1.nop
root@fbsd:~ # file -s /dev/stripe/stripe0
/dev/stripe/stripe0: ReiserFS V3.6
root@fbsd:~ # mount -t reiserfs -o ro /dev/stripe/stripe0 nobackup
root@fbsd:~ # cd nobackup/ && ls -1
.reiserfs_priv
150mb.MD5
150mb.file
root@fbsd:~ # df -ht reiserfs
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/stripe/stripe0 199M 182M 17M 92% /root/nobackup
root@fbsd:~/nobackup # gmd5sum -c 150mb.MD5
150mb.file: OK
The only "magic" here is to create accurate nop device (this can be
found reading first few KB from device - in case of superblock v1.2).
I'm sure it can be automated. The next step is to create stripe with
the same stripe size as created in Linux.
I suggest someone to do more testing, for example creating md device in
Linux with ext3 filesystem, mounting that in FreeBSD, doing some
writes, checksums and going back to Linux - check all created files
against those sums.

Your welcome to do so :)
