    No, you cannot. iptables is NOT a packet filtering software. That's 
a task for netfilter, which is part of linux kernel. iptables is only 
used to manage netfilter rules.

    So, even if you can compile iptables on freebsd (which you probably 
wont, because of missing headers), freebsd kernel will not provide 
netfilter structure that is used by iptables.

    As a completly linux kernel based software, iptables cannot run on 
non-linux plataforms.
