Yes, its in the ports system (/usr/ports) under www/firefox
If you want the java plug-in I suggest you install that first, its under
/java/jdk14 read my notes before you
start, remember to mount linprocfs:

Use this to test java (link in notes has typo):

Also this topic was hashed a few days ago here ("Status of java support
in FreeBSD 5.x release?"), so look there if you need more help.
After you get java and firefox installed you might want flash and
acrobat plugins, for this install /www/linuxpluginwrapper
