Yes.

The only file where libiodbc and unixODBC conflict is in

/usr/local/include/sql.h

which contains the API of ODBC. Both libiodbc and unixODBC implement
ODBC, so it's pretty much the same contents, but it's formatted
differently.

What I would suggest:

cd /usr/ports/databases/libiodbc/
make deinstall
cd /usr/ports/databases/unixODBC/
make install
cd /usr/ports/databases/libodbc++
make install
cd /usr/ports/databases/libiodbc/
make install
cd /usr/ports/databases/unixODBC/
make deinstall
cd /usr/ports/databases/libiodbc/
make reinstall

This is messy. Some other suggestion:

File a PR and we bug both upstream providers to seperate their two sql.h
files, so that libiodbc and unixODBC can coexist.
