I agree that the Realtek hardware is something to be avoided, but the answer to the Question "Is it possible to plug in 4 x network card in one FreeBSD box and that all that cards works." is "yes." If you really want 4 network interfaces, you should look into the multi-interface cards. I have a 4 interface DEC card based on the DEC 24041 chipset. BSD treats it as 4 seperate cards, and you save yourself 3 slots. :) (each "NIC" still requires an IRQ though) I'll get the model number from the card if you are interested.
