No.

The closest equivalent is xscreensaver.  It isn't part of the XFree86,
but it's available from the ports and packages in FreeBSD.

That's a different question.  A locked, private room is definitely the
method of choice.  Against a determined adversary, xlockmore is
probably (?) a bit more secure than xscreensaver, but if in doubt, log
out and then log in again later.
