Yes, you can.  WinNT gets its partition ("slice" in BSD terminology) and
FreeBSD gets its slice, and you use a boot manager -- you can use the free
one that comes with FreeBSD, or you can add FreeBSD to NT's boot manager
(instructions for this are in the FAQ at http://www.freebsd.org).  Or you
can use another boot manager entirely.
