No, this is apparently a package for FreeBSD 5.x not 4.x, but FreeBSD 4.6.1 isn't supported by the current package collection anyway (see www.freebsd.org/ports). You may be able to use a package for 4.11-STABLE, but chances are good it won't work. Stick with the packages that were shipped with 4.6.1 (you might be able to find these on a mirror, see http://mirrorlist.freebsd.org), update to a modern version of FreeBSD, or build the software by hand.
