No, you need a package repository for pkgng, not the ports tree.
You can try 
# setenv PACKAGESITE "http://pkgbeta.freebsd.org/`uname|tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'`-`uname -r|cut -d. -f1`-` uname -m`/latest"
# pkg update
# pkg upgrade

But please take note because pkg can also downgrade a package if
the remote repository has an older version that the one that you have
installed.
