AFAIK, no.

There are several Linux-based packages that include several - though
not all - of those components. Not that I've seen for FreeBSD. I'd
seriously recommend a source install, especially with the mod_ssl and
static mod_perl modules. In my experience there's just too much that
usually gets muddled with package-based installs of these components,
especially together. A good set of Linux-based instructions are
here...

Or, that's only 5 packages to install. Could just 5 five seperate
pkg_adds, and hope for the best.
