No.  192.168.0.x is non-routable by definition.  The only way around
this would be to have your perimeter firewall punch through stuff
from the outside coming in on port 25 to your VPS instance.   This
is almost certainly not going to happen.

A better way is to find a free/cheap external mail provider that will
host mail for your domain.   I believe namecheap.com will do it for $10 US/year
if you use them as your domain registrar.  You can then use automation on
your FreeBSD box to poll the upstream server and pull in the inbound mail
on a regular cadence.
