I can't see any other way of running a FreeBSD machine as a diskless
FreeBSD/X Server than by starting it as a diskless system and running
X.  Or wasn't that really your question?  If the question was "can I
do this", then the answer is "yes, if you have a supported graphics
card".  You'll have to decide for yourself whether performance is
adequate.
