Thanks for the tip! I've fixed the issue following the following steps:
1) added two new disks with the same size: da3 and da4
2) Made a partition for both:
gpart create -s gpt da3
gpart create -s gpt da4
gpart add -t freebsd-zfs da3
gpart add -t freebsd-zfs da4
3) replace both disks on pool
zpool replace zroot da2 da3p1
zpool replace zroot da3 da4p1
4) rebuild bootcode
gpart boocode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptzfsboot -i 1 da0
Done! I rebooted and everything is working again.
Thank you guys for the support.
