It depends on where the free space is. If you mean growing the FreeBSD
slice (which is BSD language for a DOS partition) then I don't think you
can.
However, if it is unallocated space in the slice take a look at the
growfs man page. You'll probably need to use bsdlabel/disklabel to edit
your slice partition table.
Searching for bsdlabel and growfs will probably help too.
